He ripped that plane in a circle and landed. Scared the shit out of me until I realized we were landing. He is a great pilot and aims to entertain you. The cabin is a nice little A frame with a large loft where we put our bed up. Sleeping up there was different because as soon as we turned off our flashlights it was soooo dark we couldn't see our hands right in front of our eyes. Weird! Saturday night we had a heck of a storm that also caused a rock slide in the middle of the night. Scared us pretty good as a few months earlier we had another cabin in the area experience a land slide of 40 acres in which a young couple had to run for their lives to escape a wall of trees and mud. They both survived. But here we are in the pitch black planning how fast we could run if needed. Not a great nights sleep. Until it was light outside, then you feel you could run fast. Haha.... Glad we didn't have to. Michael fished but we are convinced there were no fish in the Lake.He did get one nibble. It was pretty though. Went on a short hike to see Whale Harbor and the 700 foot water fall. Followed a bear trail all the way. I was not real comfortable doing this but Michael had the Judge with us. I would be ready to turn around and he would go farther. I told him he knew I would follow that gun anywhere huh? lol Saw a nice paw print but never saw the owner of it. Whew! Made Michael a wonderful birthday dinner on the heater in the cabin and got a better nights sleep. All in all he had a really nice 45th birthday.
