aksheephuntress Posted August 4, 2008 Report Share Posted August 4, 2008 Kathleen asked me to keep you all updated on the hunt also, so I'll have some updates all along the way, providing their satellite phone works;) ......I haven't actually left yet.......- but, we're just hours away from heading up north... -the biggest challenge has been lining the 5 kids with where they all are going to be staying... also,Terry has EIGHT family members coming up to stay with us ...they are arriving here at the house a week BEFORE we return......oh, my- I think we have everything ready....-LOL- I've been impersonating a wounded minnow, I think, the past couple of days...spinning around in circles... -What is that one verse from a Beetle song...."Life is what happens when you're busy making other plans"...? -Thank you , Leo- -and I don't know what I would have done, without your and Mary's help that day in Anchorage when I drove you guys up to the airport... -Helping me with the kids; and with getting that pallet of extra gear shipped off to Jim and his Super cub up north, was more help than you know- -Yep, he called the day before yesteday...-and said,"no problem Kathleen, I've got it all flown in, and tied 12 feet up in the trees"... -and I then asked him...-"which tree??"...-LOL -he got it in there, just before the non-motorized cut-off time period... -I will be texting Buckee Steve with my updates during the hunt- it is an 18-mile hike in....we start in off the Richardson HWY , along the Gerstle, on Wed.... -my pack is a little heavier in , this time...-but, the logistics with just packing in enough food for the length of time in, was a little trickier this time- -hopefully we'll be up to an area to make a base camp, and be scouting , by Friday... -Dall sheep opens officially, on August 10th..... -lots of heavy rains, flooding conditions, up north...-but, fortunately, when I talked with Jim in Delta...-this area was spared the flooding...thank goodness...-the plan is to float out, with the sheep...(I packed a third life vest for him, too.....the sheep, that is..) -Thank you, Steve, for updating for me... -..."can you hear me now.....??":) -God bless, everyone... -Kathleen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
