Decisions

DECISIONS written by Debbie Williamson Mountain Mike became ill one winter, while he was living by himself in his cabin in British Columbia, Canada. A neighbour had stopped by just shortly after the illness began and found Mountain Mike all curled up in bed with nothing to eat. "Thank you for looking after me," Mountain Mike said to Ernie, his neighbour. "I really appreciate it." "That is what neighbours are for," said Ernie. Soon after his illness, Mountain Mike received an unexpected visitor. "Mother!" exclaimed Mountain Mike, when he opened the front door to the cabin. "What are you doing here?" "Get your winter coat on," said his Mother, entering the cabin. "You are coming home with me." "No Mother," said Mountain Mike. "I am staying right here." "You could have died up here all by yourself," said Mother. … Read entire article »

Spring Safety

SPRING SAFETY written by Debbie Williamson Hi everyone! I'm the Safety Kid. I recently went to British Columbia to visit with my friend Mountain Mike. Yes, you guessed right. Mountain Mike lives in the mountains. I wanted to make sure that my friend was safe. From what I could see on my visit with Mountain Mike, things were pretty safe. Mountain Mike knew to stay away from fast flowing waters. He knew it was very dangerous and he knew that the water could sweep him away within seconds. Mountain Mike knew to wear proper safety gear when he went for walks in the forest. He also knew enough to wear the proper clothing. Even though it is spring, the weather in the mountains could change at any second. Mountain weather is very unpredictable. I had … Read entire article »

Christmas in the Mountains

CHRISTMAS IN THE MOUNTAINS written by Debbie Williamson This is Mountain Mike. I am the oldest of the Canadian Brothers. I live in the mountains of British Columbia, Canada. The Christmas season has hit the mountains and I want to share it with you. The first thing that I must do is get myself a Christmas tree. Since I own over one acres of forested land, you would not think that this is a difficult task. However, it can be very difficult to find just the right tree when you have lots of choose from. What I do is actually search all year long and when I find the perfect tree, I mark it. I find this works the best. I have my saw in hand and I'm walking out into the bush to … Read entire article »

Total Lunar Eclipse

TOTAL LUNAR ECLIPSE written by Debbie Williamson On August 28, 2007, Mountain Mike woke up early, very early in the morning. He could feel something was going on outside but he didn't know what it was. He grabbed his robe and went out into the living room of his cabin. He looked out the window and he couldn't believe what he saw. Mountain Mike grabbed his binoculars and went outside and stood on his front porch. He saw the moon above the mountains in the distance. Now, Mountain Mike has seen the moon over the mountains several times, however, he had never seen a total eclipse of the moon before. Mountain Mike stood and watched the eclipse for over an hour. When he first started watching it, the moon was a bright red … Read entire article »

Canadian Summer

CANADIAN SUMMER written by Debbie Williamson Hi everyone! This is Mountain Mike. I live in the mountains in British Columbia, Canada. A lot of people think that British Columbia only comes alive in the winter time because of the ski season. Skiing is a big thing in BC however, so is fishing and hiking. During the summer months, I love to hike into the mountains. I love going right to the very top and just looking over the edge. I get such a rush looking down and seeing the river below look like a little dotted line and full size cars looking smaller than toy cars. I've been right to the top of the mountain, right where the cloud meets the sky and a few times I have even been up higher than … Read entire article »

Spring in the Mountains

SPRING IN THE MOUNTAINS written by Debbie Williamson Hi everyone! This is Mountain Mike. I live in British Columbia, Canada, in the mountains. It has been a rather cold and long winter. We had quite a bit of snow this winter too. I am so looking forward to spring. I love spring and I especially love spring in the mountains. During spring, there is a flurry of activity in the mountains. Wildflowers are sprouting everywhere, trees are growing their leaves and birds are singing. The weather in the mountains during early spring can be a little iffy at times. We still sometimes get some cold arctic air coming down from the north. This can result in snow in the upper mountainous elevations. As a matter of fact, it can snow at any time of … Read entire article »

Valentine’s Day in the Mountains

VALENTINE'S DAY IN THE MOUNTAINS written by Debbie Williamson Hello everyone! This is Mountain Mike. It is Valentine's Day today and I'm just getting myself all cleaned up. I've got a date tonight with Melissa. Melissa is about the prettiest mountain girl that I have ever laid eyes on. Melissa and I are just going to come back to my log cabin. I have cooked a nice romantic meal just for the two of us. Roasted moose with mashed potatoes and heaps of gravy. I even made a blueberry pie for desert with blue berries that I picked fresh myself. I have a bouquet of wild flowers for Melissa. I picked them myself so I'm really hoping that she isn't allergic to them. I made sure there was no weeds in with them. I am … Read entire article »

Autumn in the Mountains

AUTUMN IN THE MOUNTAINS written by Debbie Williamson This is Mountain Mike, the Canadian Brother from the beautiful province of British Columbia, Canada. It is now autumn in British Columbia and it is so beautiful here. The trees have started to turn colour and there is a thin layer of snow on the tops of the mountains. It is starting to get cooler during the day and very cold during the night. The animals are very busy in the mountain at this time of the year, scurrying around for food. It is fun to watch the squirrels and chipmunks go from tree to tree storing their stash of acorns. They seem in such a hurry and don't even care that I am watching them. They will soon enter their hibernation for the winter … Read entire article »

August in the Mountains

AUGUST IN THE MOUNTAINS written by Debbie Williamson Hello everyone! This is Mountain Mike from British Columbia, Canada. It is the month of August here now and it is very hot.   August is the time of year that we folks in the mountains get out and enjoy the hot weather and fresh mountain air. August is the time of year that a lot of outdoor activities take place.   I like to spend my August days at the lake. I like to go fishing a lot. It is very relaxing to be out in the middle of the lake on a hot day in a boat. There is nothing like it.   I usually go fishing at the crack of dawn, just before the sun comes up. I usually see a bald eagle soar in the sky, … Read entire article »

The Bald Eagle

THE BALD EAGLE written by Debbie Williamson Hi everyone! I am Mountain Mike. I am the oldest of the Canadian Brothers. I live in British Columbia, Canada. I have a story to tell you about myself and a little bald eagle. I hope you enjoy it. One day, I was sitting on the front porch of my log cabin. I happened to look up into the sky and I saw a bird flying around. It was a big bird and at first I could not tell what kind of bird it was because it was quite a distance away from me, but pretty soon my eyes were glued to the bird as I realized it was a bald eagle. I love bald eagles. They represent freedom to me and they are so majestic. As … Read entire article »
