This is really interesting…

Well I come home from camping with Steph’s family and what has she done? Killed plantar, my first plant. She ripped it out of the pot and through it outside. I loved that plant so much. She said not to worry because she replaced it, and then I found out she just “replaced” it with another plant from the house. uhhh not sure that counts. Then last night she had the nerve to ask me this question as Plantar lied dead in our yard, “what should we do with plantar?”. WE?? pfffffffffffff. RIP plantar

Okay that being said, after driving for 3 hours from the campsite to Sacramento, and then flying a couple hours to Portland I was going to have to take the 4 hour train ride from Portland to Seattle capping off a 11 hour travel day. But Steph surprised me at the Portland airport and drove me back to Seattle with Seeley the dog. bonus

Lately I’m thinking…

What a great weekend. Here’s a picture of Seeley and I skiing yesterday at rainier – wow going up was not easy. It was steep, super hot, I was sweating everywhere and sunscreen kept running into my eyes. Seemed to be a non-issue for Seeley though as she chased little tumbling snowballs downhill each time and was able to quickly get back to where I was as I labored through each step. Watching her bolt downt he hill at the end is frickin hilarious – she couldn’t stop in 500 yards if she wanted to probably.

This is really interesting…

Also took her to Magnuson park on lake washington. Malamutes aren’t known as water dogs or fetchers, but she swam and got the ball for me about10 times – it was awesome. Granted it took about 90 minutes, as she would come back as slow as she could, usually stopping to shake off while still in the middle of the water, but what can ya do. I was cracking up the whole time

This is really interesting…

I got a lot of sun on my stomach, and zero sun on my back this weekend. I look like a two layer piece of gum or something. On a side note, we took the ol tandem out this weekend – having seeley jog along on the side basically means everyone in georgetown has to move out of the way.

Ski tickets and gas powered mowers – I had no idea how good of a deal they actually are. Climbing up just for a few turns sure shows you how ridiculously of a good deal lift tickets are that I had previously thought were super overpriced. I also tried mowing our mini lawn with a manual sinning push lawn mower thing which was basically the equivalent of doing about 100 bench presses and a couple blisters on the hands. It would go 6 inches and then stop. And that was after I trimmed the whole yard the day before (which also sucks). I think i’m just going to mow the lawn everyday so that it never gets too long for that thing to work. That shouldn’t get old at all

The Soapbox:

I’ve already had my reunion this month, and today I just put in a request for this Thursday and Friday off, next Thursday and Friday off, and the next Friday off. Super casual
