detroit men's bathroom...

sabbath thoughts

so i should be packing

instead i'm trying to make the salad

i got ingredients for a bit ago

shroom salad...

not bad...other occurances of the day:

i was sleepy today driving to church 45 minutes

since my car's radio got stolen during new years in seattle

some days i'm fine

other days like today

not so good

so i pulled over at rest stop to buy a dr. pepper

but the bloody vending machine took my dollar bill

then got the changed stuck

so it wouldn't drop in the bucket so i could get my soda

= anger + a call to pepsi vending

also = being awake w/o caffiene

to conduct the congregation at church.

new crush

forget gas guzzling cars

i've got my eyes on this...let me introduce you to the bmw isetta

bob saw these while he was at reno's hot summer nights car show and auction

i got an instant crush

can you blame me?

envision me in this...

south sister

so we got in around 9:30-10p.m. to the trail head

and headed up to moraine lake to camp
kendall had his makeshift backpack...
who needs a real one

grocery bag to bring up the trail and all...

the west lake bunch: kirstin, katie, me, kendall & mike

tear drop lake:

i've never wanted to skinny dip in a place so much

too bad there's too many people on a saturday

it was calling me

ridge to the top...quick cat nap

the 2 other sisters and mt. jefferson

sleepy at the top

all tuckered out

at the summit!

the last stretch up looking back of what we did...

lush beautiful oregon...

at the bottom of the trail

and kirstin looks like she just took of a walk in the park

instead of 10 miles...

done!

last thursdays on alberta

musicartrandomness
hula hoops & lots of tatoos

moving bands

kissing booths

you can read: i can't think of a better enrichment night

people watching at it's finest!

new occupation

i found my new occupation:

berry pickerfor those of you who don't know

oregon is full o' berries

and i love iti went "u" pickin' for my first time

and loved itif i disappear from my job

i'm in the berry fields

don't think of getting me

eastern oregon trip

so i have to experience my state...

and bob decided to brave a trip with me

one place i've been itching to go

and finally went was

crater lakewe got in super late and only had about an hour or less to explore

but i'm thinking next time to have x-country skis in the winter and do the loop.

pretty spectacular.the blue is truly amazing!

i wonder how it compares to tahoe...

it's still in my plans to see annie and compare noteswhat bob didn't know was he was being tested

luckily he's not computer savvy

so i can say about whatever i want here

so test#1

does a no trespassing sign stop someone?test #2

does a crooked sketchy bridge scare you?

and will you go all the way across?he passed test#1 & 2 with flying colors...test #3

although he looks like he's matador

(aka like this might be thought of a bull fighting area)

this test was to see if while driving on a highway

if you'll go swimming (with clothes on)

in a nearby creek

so it was his idea to get our feet wet

but my idea to swim.

again he passed test #3
test #4
can you enjoy frequent stops during a road trip?test #5
do you mind eating a random mom & pop shops?

test #6

can you listen to my music?

he passes all current road trip tests.

he also charmed a woman to opening a museum

and giving him a tour.

i'm dating a ladies man...

obviously.

whether they're retired or an extremely young filly like myself.
