Aunt got a card from Lizzie and is as pleased as punch. She has had a great day.

Wow a card from old Liz.....now, you must take of that for the family bible

When mom died last year, I was only interested in her grandfathers hand written will...I wasnt bothered about the money and jewels, siblings thought I was nuts!

no invasions from pack rats

no attempts by bears to get in the cabin, or to play football with the water collector



BUT



some 2-legged animals did get in

They left all doors wide open ........ it must have been quite recently as no sign of any animals having got in, and no soaking from rain inside.

They left all the cupboard doors wide open, but didn't do any damage, or leave much of a mess around

And they chained up the farm gate after leaving

Very strange, and weird!


They stole, among other things:-

one Camp Lantern (Coleman white gas kind)
one 15m extension cord
3 tarpaulins
6 floor runners (very cheap and on their last legs)
1 large plastic box containing among other things 6 battery operated closet lights, 3 battery operated mosquito swatters, suede leather fire gauntlets (for loading wood into the wood stove) and 3 sun hats and 1 ball cap about to be thrown out.

We don't leave much of any value up there over winter!

We had to go to bed early on Friday night 'cos we had no lights :-D


Went to town on Saturday, reported the break-in to the RCMP (ie, Mounties) ... he had the same idea as me .................. it looked like someone trying to set up his own cabin or for camping :-D

Bought replacement lantern, lights, tarp, mosquito swatters, etc

Not covered by insurance of course as the cabin is so remote that it is prohibitive


We took up there our brand new generator, mattresses, sleeping bags, etc etc ........... normally would leave those up for the summer


but they came back home with us!!
