Doug and i went to boomers in 100 mile for a beer...i forced him but we had "fun"

WE met Herman, the frog who now lives on the tire on the dock at green lake...so does a huge snake!
doug is a good man and "towed" me in my kyak when i was tired

it was bad weather for most of the time so we spent HOURS puzzling...equals sore neck!

news stuff

So whats beeen new with m e...well here are some pics and ill tell you what ive been up to. for the long weekend, doug and i went camping (our friends were suppose to come but because we had zero cell service we couldnt connect) one day we got up early and walked around lightening lake...it was 9 km and we took our time, it was fun, after we were done we jumped in the lake...but this photo was beautiful because u can see the reflection of the mountain. We also did another littler day trail. And one day did a bigger hike (31/2 hours) to the three falls...we got stopped about 30 mins in because there was two bears around the corner but we waited for 6 other people to come nad risked it together and never did end up seeing any bears! This last hike was a lot more steep and better work out- sorry no pics of it right now.

This is a pic of me and doug at the lake...we got a couple good pics with the manning lake bear- but alas they are on his camera...we had fun in the cold LAKE!
For a hour or two every day we would spend sitting in this little rocked- in- quiet sitting area- nice place to read- suntan- do crosswords- etc..

random pic form when we saw the movie "lisense to wed" we both rated it about 7/10


Random pic of me and my four best friends from high school. We went to the wedding of a friend from high school, Mark, a couple weeks ago. Great times with the girls...we took the maple ridge ferry back and sat in cmaping chair tanning and eating blizzards while waiting for an hour!!!!



here is a picutre of me and Leah one night before we went out to a club that i won 100$ to...we HAD to go because it was FREE money...good times with Robyn too!






Here is Dad and Annie at Kai's 1 year bday party- it was a lot of fun, what a cutie they both are- kai loved his chocolate cake...see Louises blog for pics...ANnie now wear pic tails!

I figured i couldnt be one uped by Jackie for i would do what everyone wants.....
4 facts
Ive learned how to do many maintenance jobs around my house- lightbulbs, fixing things, etc and i realized i could be a handy man if i ever needed to be but i dont like it
2) i have a weakness for frappe(the mocha ones)
3) i worry a lot about my family, sisters, niece, nephew, brother inlaws, dad, aunts, uncles, etc...getting sick...
4)i hate working in ER

4 new things
1) my bike...a couple months old, but its fun
2) wow..i dont have a lot of new stuff.i should go shopping...got back into hiking last year and i very much enjoyed it
3) i guess living back in bc ( 2 years now)ive readjusted well
4)working in icu...

Habits
1)Im always at work at least 10 mins early
2)i usually watch certain shows on my days off (etc, one day dr. phil, one day: csi one day: dog the bounty hunter- im not too proud of that one)
3)always wear my seat belt
4)i always push the tab down before each sip i take of pop

4 things i wanna try
well the thing that i realized is that there are a couple things namely:horseback riding and skydiving and beer and clamato juice.... that im afraid of and really why would i ever need to do that? to prove it to myself? to have a heart attack...i dont think so...but try ok...

2) travel nursing in little random places for a couple weeks at a time
3)getting married
4)playing hockey or soccer.

JAN

Here are some pics of me and leah and robyn on our trip to oregon. it was rainy most o the time, but oh well. WE went to a winery one day...see last pic and hung out at the campground and beach!!!

fun stuff

isnt that awesome....this program is so cool. thats my new hair...kinda dark but ok.....i never really sit outsiode but its been so nice out...and when friends come over....

new stuff

WEll people always say...why dont you update your blog? what is new in your life? I laugh and think...nothing really.
1)ive been working lots...decided im going to try and stay at langley instead of transfering to abbotsford in june.
2) the man who lives upstairs tore down the robins nest that was outside of my door- with that being said im getting sick of hearing birds, all day and all night..
3) i have been bbqing almost every day.
4)i hav e also been preparing for summer. bought a mattress, lanterne and just need a little cd player and im set....
5) i went camping one night randomly for 12 hours with my friend robyn. It was dark when we got there and just morning when we left...but it was still nice to sleep outside.
6) im still upset about the canucks- go ottawa go.
Thats it for me....been going biking almost every day...or walking or running!

the hike

so this is the most pics i have put on one blog post and so what they are mainly of me? Actually....,my friend Dan and I hiked the Chief today. It was good....a little tough going up but done with endurance. Its pretty scary once you get up to that rock climbing business....we were both a little scared...on the way down, as you can see in the last pic, we rid on our asses all the way down (well part way!) Recommend it to anyone for a nice day hike. (rate niceness 9/10, hardness 8/10...but only a couple hour hike round trip so not long)
