Dino Me


I want to be an army of me, in this outfit. Storming the castels, pushin the buttons, pulling the leavers. Making the fires "better." Like hundres of me.

Those of high rank (or those that took them from other me's) Would have mega-phones....shouting things like.....oh I dont know.....

"TIE YOUR SHOELACES!"
or
"EAT KITTENS"

"TROUT"

Oh such battle we will have, if only we can keep the attentionspan togeth long enough to compleat a mission....it could be great!

Nature wants me to eat moldy strawberries.....



So.......i bought a big flat of berries at Costco....you know....a COSTCO size of berries

...natrually....I try as I might, I couldn't eat them fast enough....
they began to turn.

So I thought.....I will put the musy molds ones in the trash and the good oned in the freezer for smoothies.
...I began to cut the tops off.....and discovered something that I have known a long time....
the molding ones taste great!

Got home from the hills and played croquet and tug of war, badmittion, and stuff with my WFR instructor.....something about being bound up in a thermo wrap makes for the beginning of friendship? I duh'know. Mabey....ha ha

No really, I live here....



So, I just got back from a wilderness First Responder (WFR) course.....tought in Idyllwild, CA. it was GREAT. The class was from the 3rd through the 11th of May, and then chris and I stayed on to climb a bit in the awesome area that is up there. I had a great time and learnd all kinds of nifty stuff.



There's no dolphins in the ocean.....just banana sharks and bushes....

.......and then they wrapped my up and shipped me home.....no really. Okay , not REALLY, I was a demo for a thermal wrap for people going into hypothermia....and man was it nice and warm there.....it was like a heat rock but better!

Joshua Tree, Expanded.



So, here's some more photo's from the Joshua Tree Extravaganza! Most of this happened during the end of March and the Beginning of April. Before the party moved to Moab and Indian Creek with Chris. Above, me working on a boulder problem in The Real Hall of Horrors......super awesome place.



Me working on "GunSmoke" a fun boulder traverse that I got slightly obsessed with....



Fortunatly so did everyone else.....



Above, chris working on "Hot Rocks" I tryed to follow it, but only made it about 20 feet off the ground before my fingertips started bleeding again.....took it easy the rest of the day.

Then we had a party in the Real Hall of Horrors.......super neet place. I really enjoyed it, and it was even cooler because we had MUSIC to boulder to! it was great! and I scored those AWESOME white sunglasses!



Party Hall........Oh Yeah.

Almost There!! Or am I!?!?!




So, I am Almost there. I am ALMOST 28, TWENTY-EIGHT!! Man, it has been quite the year!
I JUST (as of TODAY) flew in From Moab, UT. Well, indian Creek to be exact. and it is an amazing state, Utah is. Beautiful. The Cayonlands are amazing, and Zion! well....Epic, and that is NOT a word that I use lightly. I spent most of the end og March and then into April in Joshua Tree Park. Climb-a-nating and vega-tating. Working when I could. Then it was off to Moab UT, with a side track to Las Vegas, and Zion.



I will elaborate on all of this in the next couple days, but let me just say.....I am not quite the same as when I left. Nope, something has changed, evolved, and it is good. I am almost done with 27.....two days to go and counting. My Dad will be visiting me for my birthday. and I plan on making me a cake. possibly making a PURPLE cake. and I may get a pedicure because my feet are a wreck after this past month, and I would like to pay someone to ake care of them for me.



More photos, most taken By Christpher, will be to follow in the next couple days. so check in. Word

On The Road to Somewhere. Probably Wiggle Town



Ok, So I have been REALLY bad about keeping up on this, but I have a reason, it isn't good by any means, but it IS a reason. That reason is that I have been on the road. Climbing, and well......climbing, camping, howling at the coyotes and just living as best as I know how.



I will have a full update, photos and all, sooner than later. But for now, let us just say that this is a beautiful country that we live in and I am blessed to be able to explore it more fully this year in my life. and I hope to keep it up!
