Hole In The Wall: July 2010

First King

The "Hole In The Wall Recreational Area and Wildlife Reserve Area entered two historical moments into the HITW Annals this date. Hunter Stanley Harrington hooked and landed his first King Salmon while trolling in Cook Inlet with his father, Heath Harrington and his Grandfather Stan Harrington. It was also the first King Salmon to be boated by the new F/V She'll Dew III, a documented Salmon Research Vessel. The King Salmon weighed in at 25 pounds, mature male, based on scale samples taken, the King Salmon was inbound for spawning. Results of the DNA testing will provide additional data pertaining to which river the King Salmon was destined and age. Job well done to Hunter, do not know who was prouder, the fisherman, father, or grandfather. Hunter is the fourth generation of King Salmon Fishermen.

Gone Fishin

While on "stakeout duty" tonight at an undisclosed location, I could not help but notice that the F/V HITW was sneaking down the beach headed to sea for a fishing trip. I thought this to be unusual since I was not invited and they waited until after I left so they did not have to invite me.

They forget, I have the eye of the "Eagle" and despite the distance, I was able to make the determination the occupants in the vehicle was a "Moose" and a "Woodpecker". However,

I most likely had a more successful evening than they did, they caught this fine specimen of an aquatic specimen which are very rare in the northerly seas of Alaska. However, they did try to pass it off as a saltwater specimen of a "Large Mouth Bass", they catch, they get to eat it!

I surely do believe, although I missed a fishing trip, I was more successful in my adventure. You can see my results at http://photosrh.blogspot.com/

I think my parenting instinct has gone extinct...

NEVER NEVER NEVER leave me in charge of small animals or children....children cuz i have plenty...but Spike and I are well he is JUST to small to keep track of...he has made Uncle Bill a granddaddy...or he will be in a few short weeks...he ran off in the pit...i lost him in my Yukon...and now...well lets say the black and white dog is no longer black and white...he found the oil pan eric left in the tent on the ground...and FELL IN!! WTF?...and Uncle Bill is on his way home, its dinner time and Im blogging instead of cleaning, cooking, packing, and mowing...but the runt dog is soaking in Dawn in the kitchen sink...

I do love having him around he is great for a few laughs...but Uncle Bill is gonna think I am dog gone loser! hehe (thats a good one, I dont care who you are!)

I think my parenting instinct is going extinct...

In the Pit

Twas the night before hangovers

And all through the pit

Those gathered were drinking

No one knew when to quit

.....

The Eagle was drinking his rum

As Pooba, he was atop his own throne

And as for the rest of us

He left not one of us alone.

.....

The brunt of some joke

Victim of some gag

What's his latest gimmick

What's he got in that bag.

.....

The Charmin had blessed us

The whole derned crowd

Nieghbors dialed up 911

We were getting a bit loud

.....

The clans were assembled

Wolf, Bear, Buff and Moose

And my Gawd, the dawgs

Who the hell turned em all loose.

.....

Trailers were circled

As wagons in days gone past

It rained the first two days

And the skies are still overcast

.....

John in the cook tent

Taylor in her char

The fire is blazing

Look Out! The blue tarp is on fare!

.....

Heidi pourin out coffee

Eric sluggin his beer

Stan dishin out one liners

And Arnie-the fear.

.....

Our relation is coming

For to join the Hole in the Wall fun

Blue Duck may be with em!

Everyone git yer gun!

.....

Blue Peep got to Shana

She singed her bird digit

Sure mustiv smarted

It's still makin me fidget

.....

Taylor is wound up

She jist won't quit her talkin

That's Ok, in the next few weeks

She'd prove to be walkin

.....

The clan girls were here

secluded up on Estrogen Rise

Linked only by zip line

and soaked from the gray skies.

.....

The kids all found safe harbor

And shelter in the Grand Ol Eagle's nest

Everyone was workin

Engineering was put to the test

.....

John and his tape

Eric, his wit

Bill slapped a dandy ninety

And the gazebo still won't fit.

.....

The gravel was great

Keeps us outta the mud

Cept the kidlets

Who are covered in crud

.....

They're baking odd objects

Made from Anchor Point clay

No idea what they all are

Maybe, jist maybe some day.

.....

Granny and her wineglass

Grampy and his wig

Too much for John and I

We pull another swig

.....

Now the time for adios

But we'll come riding back soon

Ranger Bill rode out before sunrise

and the rest of us before noon.
