Ooo doo doo Katie!

I was looking at old pictures and I found this one that made me laugh my butt off. This must be what Katie's feeling right now, being at work n' all. No complaining though Katie, this says it all...

Albion Basin -- Cecret Lake hike

I'm on a roll with these pictures!

Anyway, here's the hike we went on with Shaley. Russ guided us on this one too (courtesy of the pictures) It's way pretty up there with all the flowers blooming. We had great fun. Sorry if you got a little car sick Shaley! It was worth it, right?

PEEP PEEP PEEP!


Just a tribute to those delicate monsters slowly decaying my beloved room in a cloud of noxious gas. Not to mention that lovely sound that has embedded itself in the deep crevices of my brain and SOUL! Not that I'm complaining. :| ........................................................................................................................................................................

Path of Shadows

Beware of the forbidden darkness that lies along this path, for those who wander astray are lost to the world and to themselves. Listen to the forest as the breath of nature disturbs its silent slumber. Watch as the occasional rotting leaf shifts as an enshrouded creature lurks in the shadows. Feel the pulsation of the alien aura that gushes out of the soil as it fuses with your very soul. Fear not the cryptic secrets shrouded in the gloom, for the way is secure. Remain on the path in fear of losing yourself to the foreboding shadows.

OOHHH!!!!!!
I just figured this out from the internets!
An island is defined as a landmass surrounded by water and smaller than a continent! So technically Australia isn't an island sice it's a continent! That leaves Greenland the largest island in the world anyway!

That's it! How'd ya do?
