You can Pick your Friends.......

So....
.....the story/rhyme goes....

"You can pick your friends,
You can pick your nose.
But you can't pick your friends nose."

This.......
.....Is not ture



My leggs. You wouldn't know it. But my legs are in San Frencisco in this photo.
I Drive out there with a heard of people from Draper Utah. They went to for a halloween/birthday party, and I went for a wing. But I went to the party too.

I bought the compleation of my first aircraft! A GLIDER! Whooohooooo
Ozone: Geo XS. Worth the 11 hour drive it took to get out there



Draper UT. My new home. Yes, yes. I know.....Yes i really AM moving to Utah. Yes, I am okay with this fact. In fact, my sister has begin to call it Utah-topia. Since I can't say enough good things about the place.

So...
.....I am, and have, more or less. Moved there. I pay rent, and at least ONE bike.....soon to be three. My climbing gear, studio, paraglider you know......me. my stuff.....it's showing up. I am gathering it. It is begun.

Draper Utah.
Nothing to see there.

It's a Bird! It's a Plane.....it's.....me?!?!?

Okay, so seriously, i did NOT need another sport. and had NO intention on trying one. Chris met me in Nebraska at my parents about two weeks ago, and hung out in NE. Then we went to go climb in the black hills of South Dakota, and while we were there, I decided that I would really like to see what the whole Paraglideing thing was all about. Just.....you know, watch a little. mabey take a tandem flight.



.....but knowing me, I got the tandem and thought......huh, that was kinda neet, wonder what it is like to handle one of those things? Singed up for a intro one day class.......which these photos are from, and wouldn't ya know......I am now enrolled in a couple week class. Learning to fly. it is......very diffrent than anything I EVER expected to do.

I Ate Breakfast and all i got was this lousy black eye!

No serious, I too my Nonni (grandmother) to church this past sunday (and NO i did NOT burst into flame OR cause a scene!) and she likes to go out to breakfast afterwards, so we did. And it was.....ummmmm, not good. infact it was SO not good that about an hour later I was bent over on the side of the RD pukeing my brains out. and well.....aparently I puked so hard that i got a damn black EYE! I had no idea that this could happen. But, well. Take note, that it can. so, next time you get to drunk of your food makes you ill. don't puke to hard. You might give yourself a black eye.

10 Miles

Of Dirt ROAD! and in the rain that we have been getting, I have been getting time learning how to drive on muddy dirt roads. LOADS of fun. Serious. It's 10 Miles of Dirt ROAD driving, to the highway, then a few more miles to the nearest sizeable town of a couple thousand. In truth the town of Whitney is the closest, but it only has about 87 people. ha ha ha

Nebraska.

Okay, so now I am in NE. and LOVING IT!
]The air is crisp and clean. the weather is nice. and belive it or not. GREENER than California, ok, well Southern CA. I was going to post some photos tho, the com wont seem to let me.....boo hooo

Oh, wait wait....here it goes!
BELOW, up on the ridge behing the 'rents house.......



and our driveway (1.25 miles long) on two diff nights

Cancer causing California

Soooooo, I go and help my neighbor pick his car up from the train station parking lot and this is the first thing that I come accross. Now, I know it's just a lame warning and all.......but why are these chemicals only know to cause cancer in the state of california? Why not Nevada? Eh? I need to know. Also, I think this sigh should be on the on ramp of all major roadways. since the freekin air along them in S.Cal is so rancid and pollutid that it just CAN'T be good for you.

Good thing I bailed for Nebraska just over a week ago. WheW!

Walking Rain

While Chris and I were on the ~RD home to San Diego, and we saw this wonderful rain, walking rain and it looked so tasty in the heat. Soooooooo we decided to inspect.



Sizeing up the road, we checked it out, wind blowing sideways, temprature dropping by ten degrees. It was lovely. tho we agreed that it was time to bail, since the water flowed so hard that we couldn't see the road condition nor the puddles. and we DID want to get to San Diego sometime that night.
