bag it...tag it...sell it to to butcher in the store...

Well, i am finally back! went to moab and lived outside doing the summit thing for about 25 days, which included a wilderness survival trek, backpacking salt creek, mountain biking the white rim, canyoneering (morning glory arch and blue john canyon) going to lake powell for 4 days and sea kayaking wiht a house boat (AND a slide off the back), and white water rafting. I am now in the middle of a ten day wilderness first responder course and then i will fly to alaska in the 13th of june. wowser. what a month. i have gotten used to living outside again, and actually prefer it to living INside (most the time) and only showering once a week, although i have to readjust my showring hapits to accomdate other people... but its good to be back and see family and friends. My grandma Ruby died while i was gone, but luckily it was near the end of the trip, so i was able to finish and still attend the funeral. dont worry, it wasnt sad, she was ready to go and got to say goodbye to us. anyway i think i got fatter, so i need to start running again...the funny thing it i am getting out of shape, because it was all fun and not really physically challenging most of the time. but anyway thats what i am up to. i am in provo if you wondered. hope everyone is good

Yo mary!
Good to hear from you!!I hate playing phone tag. I can't post pictures because that part of my blog isn't working yet. I went through all the loop holes and everything and finally got a hold of a real blog technician and all he said is that he did a test post and it's fine. He thinks it's my computer, but it did the same thing on your computer didn't it? Sheesh, anyways I'll be in Provo on the 10th for my little bro's eagle scout thing. You should come.We could climb that morning/afternoon :)
