When we chose to install video cameras to monitor our property, we were not sure what we expected to see. We were certainly not expecting an invasion of spiders…

Spiller Family versus the Grizzly Bear
Day 1 was off to Lake Louise. Our first stop of the day was to go up the gondola (or rather chair lift) up the mountain at the Lake Louise Ski resort for a great view of the Ten Peaks Valley. My remembrance of the off season gondola ride was that there was a restaurant at the top of the gondola where we could get something to eat and a beer. That is no longer the case. Now, what is a restaurant in ski season is a nature interpretative centre with complimentary coffee the rest of the year. Here we learned about the local grizzly Bears.
Spiller Family versus the Skunk Family – Part II
The day after our cat became the first skunking victim of 2013 of the family, our dog, Chase, became the second member of the family to get sprayed.
What was weird was letting the dog out mid afternoon on a blazing hot day and having a skunk waiting for him. The skunk was eating seeds from under the bird feeder. Skunk sightings in the day almost never happen.
Spiller Family versus the Skunk Family – Part I
Being long time pet owners, we are well aware of that moment when you let your dog out, hear the barks, and then smell that distinctive scent that can mean only one thing. The dog has been sprayed…again.
This time, it wasn’t our dog that got sprayed!
Warning! blatant proud father moment….
My son’s band, Get Back, was featured in the London Free Press. They are a Beatles tribute band with the youngest member being 12 years old and the oldest 16. They are amazing… Okay.. I’m probably biased… You tell me.
