Thanksgiving

It is Thanksgiving, which means that it is time for TURKEY!


...and guacamole, of course.


Mark was in charge of the turkey

Butter, apples, onions, and the empty bowl held garlic...

...all goes inside the turkey for flavor

With the garlic under its skin it is time to spend all day in the oven

Ding! Mark and James manhandling the hot bird

Juicy and ready to eat

Yum!

The dogs played in the snow instead of eating turkey.

Snow has hit.



Our winter nights just brightened up a bit

Hunting with Josh

Josh came over for the weekend in hopes of hunting down a deer or two with Mark this season. After two long 14 hour days in untouched terrain, they at least came home with a moose paddle and were instantly ready for bed.

Josh found it on the forest floor and the dogs wanted so badly to chew on it

Those lines are where the veins were. Moose shed their paddles annually to conserve nutrients.

This was taken about ten minutes after dinner.
