In Summary

The past couple of months have been amazing. That is amazingly good and amazingly hard. To work day in and day out in the beauty that God created is out of this world. To hike up a mountain and bring back a quarter of a elk was also out of this world. Everything I experienced truly made me a stronger person. I was physically and mentally pushed, getting up at 4 am and going to bed at 10 pm gets to you after awhile. Working and working hard day in and day out teaches you a lot about yourself and the other staff around you. (Or should I say the other staff acting like they are working).

I cannot write out the amazing things that I have seen and experienced, but I can tell you stories face to face (if and when you ever see me). There is a large amount of understanding those stories hearing them rather than reading them.

My trip home was great!!! I stopped in Canyon and spent a couple of days with B and Billy and Rocky and Bullwinkle, if was fun and relaxing. Oh and we made elephant cookies for the WT football team. Then I headed over to Sanger to the Tutts!!! Since I lived with them for a while back in the old days it is always like going home. Squirt and Squishy have gotten so big, they are going to be taller than me in a matter of no time. It was the weekend before Halloween so we hit up all of the trunk or treats. It was funny because Squish was a scuba diver so she was walking around with flippers on all night. And I also got to spend a day with TW. Oh on the Monday morning the girls woke me up and told me to get ready cause we had to go to school. So I got up and got ready and went with TW to take them to school and went later that afternoon and picked them up. Then I finally made it all the way home and made a complete mess of Sean's house.

Now that I have made it back to Texas I am still getting use to not being surrounded by mountains and huge pines trees (And we didn't have any grass up there either). I look up into the horizons daily looking for a mountain. I am also getting use to not eating as much and the fact that now I am living over 9,500 feet lower than I did for the previous 6 months.

So the word on the street is that I will be moving to Trinity, TX in the near future. I go out there in a week or two to hammer out the details of my new job. So life is going better than I could of imagined.
