Day before school.

 

Bowl of Diamond Peak

I am so happy that you have the internet again.  But you haven’t updated your page.  What is up with that?  We are back at Shelter Cove.  The weather is so nice right now.   I am sad that we have to leave our house again because school starts tomorrow.  Sad.  But it has been a nice week off.  Did you see the pictures I sent of the hike that we did. It was so nice.  There was a huge thunderstorm.  I am sure you must have had one in Bend as well.  The first night we hiked in their was lighting and then thunder very quick right after.  It was a little scary.  We got the tent set up just in time, because it started to rain right after that.  The next morning it was sunny and beautiful.  We hike all day and then we stayed the night at the base of Diamond Peak.  Again we got the tent set up and it started to rain right after that.  Hung out and read some books, which by the way I have another recommendation.  But back to the hike. The second night it was scary up there because it was another thunderstorm.  And we were in a stand of trees.  You would see the flash of lighting and then it would rumble through the bowl of the mountain.  You could feel it in your bones.  I did not sleep so well, plus we had our food next to the tent and not up in a tree so I was scared that a bear was going to come.  Long night.  But next morning beautiful.  I’ll stop blathering but it was really nice.  I put some pictures on here for you to if you didn’t get to see them already.  Enjoy.  

 

Question of the week.   Let’s see.   What is your favorite meal?  That’s a pretty easy one.  I”ll call you later.

 

The journey begins....

Question of the Week

Top 5 movie list.  You have to name your top 5 movies, with a short description and why you think they  should be on the list.  Then we have to promise to watch each others movies by one year.  I am a really slow movie watcher.  Maybe you can bring one over or we can rent one of yours and mine on Wednesday.

Question Three?

What book are you reading right now and what do you think of it so far?

 

I am reading this book called !Nisa.  It is about a indiginous women that lives in the desert in Botswana.  Botswana is somewhere in southern Africa.  It is really interesting.  It is told in two different perspectives.  Each chapter is divided by the anthropologist writing and then the indiginous woman, !Nisa writing.  The exclamation in front of her names means that you click with your tongue when you say her name.  They use that clicking sound to communicate.  I’ll write more later if you are interested but I am tired now.  We just got home from the weekend because after Bend, we went to Florence to hang out with Harley and Marsii for Harley’s birthday.  I’ll puts some pictures up tomorrow, but Harley got a motorcycle for his birthday so we went to the dunes.

Added Link

I added a link section to my page if you are interested. It is on the left hand side.  I put a link to your web-page because for some reason I keep loosing it .  I don’t know if I already told you this but one of my classes, Pilates, our instructor asked us the goal question that I asked you.  She gave us a link for idea on what themes we should use for our goals.  So here is the link.  

Ps.  I really liked your goals but you didn’t tell me how you are going to get to them.  I’ll post my goals as well later today or something.  I think I am going to do just the short term, maybe 6 months.

? Question of the Week ?

#2.  

Name four goals that you would like completely by the end of the year and how you plan to achieve them.  Ohhhh I sound like a teacher.  Remember when I used to play teacher and make you guys to school work and go to P.E. and run around the block.  Ha!  That is funny to think about now.  Cioa!

Favorite Childhood Memory?

So…. for my first question to you, I want to know one of your favorite childhood memories.  As much detail as possible.  

One of my favorite childhood memories was when we were over at Scott & Eric’s house.  Do you remember how they had that rope swing?  Well for some reason we had the rope attached to the limb up high and then to something else.  We were having one another hold on to and try to whip them off, which I believe we were sucessfully doing to you.  I remember you had so much dirt all over your face and we thought that it was so funny.  We ran home and you called mom to tell her what we had done.  I remember that we had taken pictures of it and I wonder if those are around somewhere.

You can most definitely respond to this one.
