Late Thanksgiving in Smithers

 

View of Hudson Bay Mountain dusted with snow from my mother's house.

We visited Smithers a week after Thanksgiving.  The big feast was delayed so we could share with our niece Sonja who had been working at a fishing lodge on the Babine River.  The rest of the year she lives in India so we were very happy to see her.

Not many pictures were taken, but as you can see above, the mountains were covered with snow.  We did a couple of hikes while we were there.

My birthday fell on the same weekend so I got to celebrate with my mom!



Here I am with my birthday bagels baked by brother-in-law Dave.


On the theme of Thanksgiving, we've been harvesting our garden produce, including 1 large acorn squash (10" long) and five delicata squash (ate one already).

Aren't those delicatas beautiful!

Five pounds of beets:


Some of Leo's potato harvest:



Also 6 pounds of parsnips and 2 bags of carrots (no photos)!
