Photo of Black-tailed Buck with Antlers
Remember I said I became so excited that, when I tried to take the photograph of the deer in the woods, I did something wrong with the settings on my camera with the result that only a black image came up on the digital feedback screen of my camera?
Well, it turned out that I was able to get an image by using the photo processing software on my home computer.
Here it is. Isn’t he magnificent!
By the way, although it looks as if he might be a metaphysical deer because his eyes are glowing, the glow is actually caused by the flash from my camera.

Here’s a photograph of the silver fox pups on the side of the road.
Actually, I do not really know if their are specifically “silver” foxes. I called them silver foxes in my last post because their mother, who is not in the photo, has long silver fur on her body.
Note the white tip on the end of the tail.
Two fox pups we encountered on the road between Kinkolith and New Aiyansh in northern British Columbia, Canada. This is an area that is as far north as the Alaska panhandle and very worth visiting for the magnificent mountain and river scenery, wildlife and, this time of year, salmon fishing.

We flew into Terrace, which was like a totally different world compared to Victoria’s waterfront flowers and tourists. Now, we’re in Port Hardy after spending the day yesterday on a cruise-ship type ferry going from Prince Rupert. We enjoyed the gorgeous northern views and overate at the scrumptious buffets.
Today, we’re spending another day going on the Northern Expedition going back to Prince Rupert and then driving through mist-enshrouded mountains back to Terrace and then on to visit my girlfriend who works with the First Nations people of the Nass River, the Nisga’a, some of whom are totem pole carvers.

John and I are off on another adventure. This time, we are going to northern British Columbia in pursuit of the Nisga’a Lava Beds. Earlier on this trip, we visited Mount Rainier and Mount St. Helens in Washington State. I want to have images of volcanic mountains in the Pacific Ring of Fire for my 2012 movie.
Most people know about Rainier and St. Helens. But, do you know that Canada had a major volcanic eruption only 300 years ago? We have been to the Nisga’g Lava Beds before but, at that time, I did not bring my video camera. This time, I want to take footage of the lava beds that look like a river made out of huge chunks of charcoal covered in lichens. In the 300 years since the volcanic eruption that created these lava beds, there has hardly been any regrowth over the lava unlike the Mount St. Helens area, which erupted only about 30 years ago in 1980. The Nisga’a lava beds look as strange as a moonscape.
We have a long wait until our Hawk Air flight to Terrace BC. My laptop is plugged into an electrical outlet beside my chair. The red “battery charging” light on my camcorder is blinking because there is a second electrical outlet beside my chair where I have plugged in the camera. I used up two batteries taking exciting dynamic shots of seaplanes landing and taking off in Victoria. Now, I need to make sure that my camera will be ready to take footage of the volcanic mountains ,which are part of the Canadian Cascades, which we will be flying over on our way to Terrace.
John is sitting next to me in the small aircraft hanger adjacent to Vancouver International Airport. He is wearing a straw cowboy hat we got in Yucatan. His breathing is becoming audible and deep. His hands are clasped over his abdomen and his eyes are closed. His head is falling forward. Will he begin to snore?

It is so clean and beautiful with baskets of hanging flowers from even lamppost.
The air from the harbour is so fresh and clean!
They also have marvelous Asian restaurants.
Time for lunch – see you later!

My husband John and I toured around Rainier National Park today. Beautiful vistas and great photos of the mountain. Amazing that it is a volcano!

As you know, I will be presenting Atlantis and its Colony in Egypt in Portland, Oregon, this Saturday, July 18th at Raymond and Nobie Tarpey’s place, 2481 Marylshire Lane, Lake Oswego, Oregon, contact Nobie Tarpey at (503)697-8341, nobtarpey@yahoo.com.
More information about this and the following program in Anchorage Alaska can be found on my speaker web site at http://www.CaroleChapman.com/Events.html.
You may not know that I will in Anchorage, Alaska presenting a new program on August 14, 15, and 16. It is called Everyone Has a Book in Them. This seminar is both an opportunity to explore your creativity with both writing and photography and also a practical “how to” get your ideas into a book, published and promoted.
I decided to create this new program because of the emphasis Edgar Cayce puts on creativity as an expression of soul that is as powerful as the psychic. Since everyone can write, I thought it was a good place to start.
Because I am a non-fiction spirituality writer, I am also bringing my friend, national award-winning mystery writer Jean C. Keating to talk about the fiction end of book authoring.
Perhaps you’d like to join Jean and me in Alaska on August 14, 15 and 16 at the A.T.O.M. Center on 425 Raspberry Road in Anchorage, Alaska. It is a lovely time of year to vacation in one of the most beautiful wilderness destinations in North America.
Make a week of it and explore Alaska as well as your creativity! After the class, you can practice your writing and photography while vacationing in Alaska. You can write about your experiences and take photographs to illustrate your writing. Or just use your experiences in Alaska to relax your mind so you can more easily write that book you’ve been meaning to write.
For details about fees and the schedule of the Alaska program, go to the Everyone Has a Book in Them web site (there’s an early registration discount special!).
