Decisions, Decisions.......

Well, it has been a few days.. OK almost a week since I last blogged. Camp has been fun and I've met a lot of wonderful amazing people but, I have decided to come home early. I know many of you question why.  I just feel it is the best thing for me to come home. I have enjoyed my time here and have learned many things. Over the last week i have learned how to use excel, merge documents from word to excel, drive a golf cart, and train new people in the office. It has been great! I'm very excited to come home and be with my family and do things there as well.  I will take some other pics and post them later but for now I'm off. Just thought I would post a quick update. ciao!!

taking a very much needed water break.. it was hot and flat. the rest of the hike was straight up hill..

Adenture to the Dr's

Don't worry going to the Dr. wasn't for me. One of the guys cleaning up camp got pink eye and I got the job to take him to the Dr. He didn't want to drive himself because he isn't from her..I offered and said, "I can follow a GPS." It was a good time. The guys name is Matt, he talked the entire way to the Dr. I knew a lot about him by the time we got there. It was a 45 min drive. When we were almost there he looked at me and said, " how does my eye look?" It was very gross, it had goobies covering his eyelids that strung from one lid to the other. I should have taken a pic but it was gross. EWWWW!!! Anyway, after the appt. he offered to take me to dinner for doing such a good deed and taking him to the Dr. He asked what i wanted and i'm not picky so i said, anything works He said he was in the mood for Lobster, i wasn't going to argue with that. So we went and got Lobster and it was DELICIOUS!!! It was very worth it to take him to the Dr. thank you Matt:)

Being Sore

Well, yesterday I was pretty sore from hiking tumbledown, My quads and calves were so tight. I have to walk up a hill everyday to come to the office and it was tough to do. I kept getting up and walking around and stretching my legs to help them not be so sore. So, it was really funny, while I was in the office I looked up some jokes on the Internet and after work I called my friend David and told him the jokes and that I made them up.. and he TOTALLY believed me. He told me I should put them on the Internet and become famous with them. HA HA it was really fun. I later told him that I looked them up, he thought I was so creative. I loved it!!!
Last night we went into town and went to TRIVIA at a local pub. Every Tuesday people go to this pub and a guy does a big trivia game with prize money for the winning teams. We have come very close both times we went to play. the first week we made it to the end and had a tie breaker and lost. This week he changed up the scoring so we didn't win, maybe next week we will.
Well, ta ta for now!!
