Days in the Sun Shine.

Well y'all my days out here are numbered well if you can't today its 6. Well let me tell y'all a little bit about what I have been up to this past while. Work is about dead the sells reps out here aren't getting the job done anymore. So as a tech I have not been getting the necessary installs that I need so I decided to come home early. But one good thing about it being super slow is that I have had more time to play. This past week all the tech myself included all went and bought tubes, we then went and tubed down the Red Deer river. It was a lot of fun the river was pretty shallow I hit my lower backside(aka butt) on a few rocks. That didn't feel so good but the float took about an hour and a half and it was a lot of fun. During the float we had wars with one another and threw each other in the river. We all bot sun burned pretty badly, I got a nice even burn over my entire body that was not that bad it went away after a day. But the other techs got pretty roasted.
Then a few days later on a Saturday, the singles branch had a beach activity out by Sylvan Lake. Justin and I went out to attend it. We had a ton of fun, first we went wake boarding. Did I mention that I have not been wake boarding in at least 5 years. Well I did pretty good I got up and was able to show off how good I was and wrecking. I showed how I can attempt a 180 in the air and then face plant it. I did knock the air out of myself pretty good. After wake boarding we did some knee boarding we had two people going at the same time. Justin and Brooke went first then I switched Brooke. Well it was fun except for the fact that the ropes were different lengths so I was behind Justin. Besides eating a lot of water and getting the full view of Justin's crack it was a fun experience. Then we returned to the beach and ate some really good burgers and bratwursts. I also ran into one of my mission buddies who is from Red Deer and had recently come back from BYUidaho. After we reapplied some sunblock we went and got on another boat. we proceeded to go tubing. Justin, Brooke and I got on three person tube that was being towed by Brooke's sister Sam. Well needless to say Sam is a crazy driver. She wipped us around pretty good and then the tube barrel rolled and I was thrown pretty far infront of the other two and then after I hit the water Brooke slammed into the back of me. It didn't feel to good but I was fine but Brooke later found out she fractured her arm and sustained a cuncusion. Then Justin and I had to go back to work so we left.
The next sunday we had the pleasure of feeding the sister missionaries. I had the opportunity to cook and prepare some navajo tacos for them which I must say were delicious.
well y'all I will probably see most of you before I post another blog.
peace.

Oh Canada

Ok lets see where to start? Well, I am still dating Jaylyn its going pretty good. Well on friday I woke up early and we went to the Edmonton temple and did a session. It is a really small temple but it was really pretty. The Celestial room had this chandalier that was really pretty. After the Temple we went to the West Edmenton mall which is either the biggest or the second biggest mall in the world. It was pretty cool it has an indoor water park and everything else you can imagine. We got lunch there then we had to get back to Red Deer because we had an hour drive to where we were working. Work is going well I have a hundred installs now so its going pretty good. Well for Canada which is July 1st we went and played fugitive with the singles branch. It was fun but i got pretty dirty and cut up from jumping through some thick foliage. Well to say the least Canada is really lame compared to the fourth of July in the states. Oh and one of the techs that works with me is taking the lessons so that is pretty cool. Well not a whole lot of things happen here. Oh yeah there was a tornado a few days ago here in town that was pretty cool to watch. well talk to you all later.
