The new place

This is mostly so Angela (and whoever else)can see the befores and afters of renovating the new store! A month and a half of 12 hours days later, viola! There is still more of this and that to be done.Enjoy!

These pictures are actually after my dad had taken a huge load of junk to the dump and I painted the ceiling black -this really isnt the full effect deal, but you get the idea.

Do you guys sell googly eyes?.........................

ITS DECEMBER!!!

Holy crap i haven't posted in a long time. Maybe it had to do with me renovating and moving the store, trying to get in some hiking, dog sitting from hell, and trying to have a life between. And with all this, i have been feeling super lazy on my days off,eating way too much junk.I have also acquired a taste for reading and have become almost obsessed with CBC radio1.These are both very new things for me.

Strangely enough i actually really miss Goose,Daisy and Jake. I was told i was a good influence on the dogs, especially Daisy.She hasn't crapped in the house since i left(not house trained at 2 years old)

Unfortunately i didn't make it down to California to see my bud but it just wasn't in the budget on top of buying a brand spank in new Santa Cruz snowboard!!!! and forum bindings! I'm absolutely twitching to get on the hill now! All i know at this point, is how to work my snowboard that i have owned and road since i was 14. Should be interesting to see me get off the lift in the 'new digs' whatever.Ill make sure to film it.ha ha. Snowboarding is pretty much all i talk about at this point.

I did the ever so flat but beautiful Lightning Lake chain. Couldn't have asked for a better day, crisp and cool being the first weekend in November but the sky was clear.There were barely any people out either which made it that much cooler.(Monday in November)

Deeds had a blast! I'm starting to see him age,he doesn't really run anymore and is usually absolutely trashed the days to come after hiking. I think the 5 hour walk was beyond his limit.I hand fed some birdies, ate an awesome lunch, and had some good laughs and ski/board chats with my friend Tyler.

Also managed to get out and do some geocaching with Jake(the dog) and Clayton a couple weeks ago. That was really cool!I have never done it before and couldn't believe how many of those things there are hidden just about everywhere. Clayton was kind enough to let me do some of the navigating which was really cool.We found two and the third one up at Foley Lake, which happened to be his dads box seemed to be impossible to find.Also did a quick hike up to Lindeman again.

- i met a real life bible reading cage fighter today.Come on, does it get any cooler? really?
