Mother's, Pelican's, Archery Shoots, Deer & Elk...

Well my mom has surgery coming up soon. My mother-in-law just completed her kimo. My dad is doing well, even though he forgot to take his med's 2 days this week. Thanks to ALL for your prayers and help this past 2 weeks. I Love You All.
Pelicans- well the pelicans follow the salmon runs, and today we took pictures of the pelicans flying over our home just above the power lines. I thought for a moment they were going to land in my pond and eat my goldfish,lol.
This weekend is the 3-D Archery Shoot and we're ALL so ready for it. Last week my Husband and I put on our new Cobra sights and sighted them in. So off to the Yakima Valley we go!!
My Husband and I took a day trip up the Ewe Neck and took a walk looking for sheds, we stalked up on a herd of deer, does and fawns. So we turned a different way a walked up on 4 cow elk who started barking at us, we realized that they were calving so we left the area as quietly and quickly as possible. There was a baby calf, new born, maybe a few days old, lying in the brush off the trail, it was so cute!! If you have never heard an elk bark, well your missing something, or a cow elk mew, or a bull elk bugle, so awsome!! I Love Nature, we have an Awesome God!! Do you know the song "Our God is an Awesome God"?? Well I need to get my shower and head for bed before my hubby falls asleep,lol. B4N Sandy...

I saw birds, but didn't know what they were, thanks for the info, next time someone says something I can say, oh those are pelicans,lol!!
I've heard an Elk bugle, are you saying only the males do it? It sounded scary to me, but I was camping and it was dark.
So did you guys get any trophies? I know Ashley thought she would. Well I know your busy and all but e-mail me. Later J.

Hi Sandy. It was nice seeing you and your family this weekend. Thank you soooo much for letting me in on the Archery Shoot Info. My husband, kids and I had a great time. You were right about it being a family outing, I can't beleive how many new friends we ALL met. The girls thought there would be "only adults" there, and our son thought there would "only be older boys" there. I was amazed at the various age groups of boys, girls, women and men. The kids can't wait till the next one,lol!! My husband too, such a child!! I saw your family took home trophies, congrats to them. Well I need to run, schools getting out. Later my friend. T.
