Chicken Harvesting ~ from field to fork

So we offered you the chance to decide whether you wanted to learn about what it takes to get chicken on your kitchen table when you are not relying on a grocery store.  Well polls closed and the 9 of you who voted decided that yes food is not only the tasteless over packaged crud that you get from the back of the superstore, food does come from a farm, grown by a person and the meat we eat used to be a living, eating, breathing

winter is coming

Justin and Lil are on their way back Outside, and we are quietly moving around our home, doing the things that you do after visitors leave. Some of us are reading the Yukon News and eating leftovers, and some of us are deciding which library book would go well with this cold grey afternoon and a warm red couch. 

We have lots of fun times to reminisce over, including a fantastic day trip over to Kluane yesterday, Carcassone battles and some delicious meals with new recipes. The weather in Kluane was picture-perfect, and we climbed the King's Throne trail with the dogs. It was a ~500m elevation gain, and there were lakes, forests and mountains as far as the eye could see. Justin and Lil both took lots of great photos, which we hope to share with you some time soon.
