Exploring King Cove

Today we woke up and ate bisquits and gravy. We then loaded up the 4 wheelers, and gased up. Then headed for the hills. We decided to go check out the hydro power plant. For the next 4 hours we climed mountain after mountain. We rode to the top of the first peak and looked over the south end coast. We saw at least 5 whales! With the binoculars you could see their shinny skin. We didcided to go up another peak and we came to a huge waterfall. WE had to hike in. One waterfall turned into many waterfalls. There ended up being a deep canyon so we will have to go back and hike the other side to get up in there. We didn't see any bears, but we did come fully armed. Lars brought a 357, a 22, and a shot gun. On our way out we crossed a patch of berries, both Salmon and Blueberrries that we hadn't seen on our way in. We ate more than we should have and Trace loaded his pockets with blueberries to take home to Neisha. She loves them, and I thought that we could make blueberry pancakes in the morning. Elyse amd Neisha stayed home and put together a family video with all of our pictures that we don't have saved on a disc. Elyse did the music and it turned out great! After dinner we watched it and hit the sack!
