Wow... has it been over 2 months since my last post? I really do mean to write more often... but then things just get busy and blogging is far from my mind. I will get you up to speed in 500 words or less!

Since June 21st:
Canoe to Canmore with Kathryn - Freak storm, almost flipped, got turned right around - some how survived.
Cheryl came to town - hiked Wilcox Pass
Mountain biked the spray river.
Road biked Minniwanka
Went to Paddlefest - did the "double ledges" (class 4 white water!!)
Mountain Biked Tunnel Mountain
Camped at "lake of the hanging glacier" 12km backcountry hike
Doctors said I don't have hypoglycemia - still doing some tests to figure things out
more kayaking
3 day backcountry trip up mosquito creek. Interestingly - no mosquitos??
Hiked into Mount Assiniboine. (Day 1: 30km, day 2: 20+km, day 3: 25+km, Day 4 - Helicopter ride out)
Flew home - 40th anniversary. David and Stevin realized that I am unable to dive into water... I really need to figure that out this winter.
Kathryn and I biked under the stars home from Lake Two-Jack campground
floated down Bow river, 4 hours didn't get us to banff so we had to walk.
Kanfest (kayaking festival) I did my first "battle roll"
Kathryn bought me a dry-top for kayaking for my Birthday!
Went out with some friends and had a BBQ to celebrate turning 28
Went Kayaking and hit my first rock while underwater - my left shoulder got pulled and have been on the injured list since...
and just this past weekend, went camping in the Okanagan, nakusp and at Lake O'Hara...

so... that has been my summer in or around 500 words... I hope. (i'm not counting)

now for the fun story that I'm sure you want to here...

  1. If I moved out there, I would be sure to lose a few pounds with all that hiking!
