Portneuf, Charlie, et Mes Parents

Hello there!

It's been a while since my last update. I've been really busy with visitors and everything in between. Last week my parents and I traveled to the Northeast of Montreal to the Reserve Faunique de Portneuf. It was so beautiful there! We stayed in a little cabin with non-potable cold water, no electric and an outhouse! I haven't done anything like that in a long time. We did have a woodburning stove and propane lighting and a propane cook stove.

We met a little pine squirrel who Papa named Charlie. Charlie was in and out of our cabin 20 times a day begging for food. He dined on pistachios, wheat crackers, and soy chips. As you can see from the photo...Charlie has carved a niche for himself in the country cottage market....and does not go hungry! Here are some of the sights!

HA! Not a chance nymous! This is my little fantasy world where I do not appear on a bad hair day or without at least some makeup. However here's a pic of the karate cat...hopefully this will appease you.
