There and Back Again

(this is what rexburg area looks like right now)

SO I am not the best blogger. Big shocker. BUT I plan on being a little bit more consistent than once every 4 months, as is the current pace. So a little update on my life. I survived another semester at school, and learned how to safely navigate all sorts of fun driving conditions. My favorite is snow on polished ice. Oh, and I am of the opin

ion that the majority of drivers in Rexburg (aside from me, of course) should not be allowed to drive when its not dry pavement. Looking back on the semester, I haven't gone on as many excursions as I did the previous semester. That is in large measure because once winter sets in, you aren't going very far off of the main roads. However, Nae came up before the snow hit so we did a circuit of Yellowstone and then went south to Teton national park. It was sweet.

We spent a good deal of time talking about getting the "mennin"(meningitis) from the geyser vapor or having a bad case of the rubies.(this has no correlation to anything) We also sang country songs, ate sugar peas, many rolls, and talked of getting a good cantalope (antelope). We found some buffalo in Teton that were in a "fenced" enclosure but the fence was super small and was open in a lot of spots.

I got as close as my stupidity would let me, and I snapped these. Those suckers are big. Just saying. But fortunately I didn't die, and neither Nae or I got the Mennin so it was a fun trip where nobody suffered severe injury. Score. So there you have it. My life in a small nutshell. Now im back at home working at the lab again, and saving up for the future. Its a new year, which brings change and different challenges and adventures. Im ready. Its crazy to think how life changes from year to year, but exciting too.
