Camera traps

Aaron's newest hobby is camera traps. It's like a game camera (just more expensive) that is motion activated camera that you leave somewhere to get wildlife pictures. It even has 3 flashes that need to be set correctly so you can get really good night shots. Just like all of Aaron's hobbies, he has found ways to include the entire family. So, once a week, we all trudge into whatever remote area where bobcats or mountain lions or whatever the prey of the week is and change batteries and memory cards and move cameras around. It's been a blast. Brooklynn and AJ both bring their cameras and we go on walks and take "epic journeys". AJ is so excited to be old enough to be included, and Brooklynn is as obsessed as Aaron on getting the perfect shot. Aaron is always online in forums looking for better prey and better ground and better lures. Last week he said that one of the guys on a forum got good mountain lions pics by using some perfume called channel or something. I asked him if he meant Chanel, and he said yeah something like that. Now this may make me a really bad person, and you can judge me if you want, but I told him that it sounded like a really great idea. I now have a brand new bottle of Chanel no 5 in my bathroom, and I would like to personally thank "black hill Dave's" wife for being an evil genius!
