These pictures were taken in July of 2007, while working for West Fraser (Hinton Wood Products).

Waiting for the helicopter to arrive.

While waiting, some of the planters decide to take up bowling.

Glen Beatty, on the block. It's a bit more green than we've been used to this summer.

Tina.

Lac La Biche. Yes, there really is a big lake there.

Trying to make the boots last just a few more days.

A photo of the block. Believe it or not, this was a mounded block.

Renee.

Joanne & Tina.

Some spruce trees planted in an area where a slash pile was burned.

Joanne, wearing her high-vis candy cane socks, and her lady-boots.

Perhaps these were vultures, circling over our block.

Frank, our helicopter pilot, talking to Shelley.

Yogurt cups for breakfast, and um, a banana cream pie (we were cooking and shopping for ourselves on this contract).

Mike Taylor.

Glenn Chapman.

Peeling a mango.

Mark Josefson, taking a call on the block from his financial advisor. I think he was saying, "Don't buy, we need to conserve cash - the block is pretty green!"

Fernando.

Don't be scared of the Cookie Monster.

Tina, Joanne, Jackie, & Travis.

This double-rainbow behind my truck was very bright.

Dan Gillespie.

Walking into the blocks on the last day of the season.

Joanne is looking a bit confused by all the buttons on the camera.

Ana, trying to hit Greg in the face with a banana-cream pie. It was the last day of the season, and also Greg's thirtieth birthday.

When we got back to Prince George after the season was over, so we could spend a few days cleaning up and signing in all our vehicles and equipment, we saw a train derailment just across from the center of the city.

Another photo taken in the suburbs.

Ana has been cleaning the quads, but apparently nobody told her not to use her face to do the cleaning.

Fred, fixing the hitch on the truck.

Joanne, cleaning off a quad, with that evil look in her eyes. I have a feeling that I would have gotten very wet at this point if I wasn't holding the camera at the time.

Ana, eating dessert in bed, with real maple cream from New Brunswick on top of the ice cream (thanks to Tim Trahan).
