An Excerpt From My Mind

Well, I suppose it may in fact be time for a new blog. Since don't have anything really in particular to write about, I'll just say mostly whatever comes to mind.

Well, Okay, one of the top things on my mind is that school is ending here pretty quick! Sweet! A part of me is so excited for summer and spring to come, and then another part of me is terrified. Yes. It's true. Terrified. I'm excited for days that almost seem endless, with the sun's glow until somewhere around 9:00p.m. Ahhhhh... it'll be nice. Then, there is playing in the water. Now that my parents are here, hopefully they'll find a near by favorite lake to play at. Ahhh... Water Skiing, and jumping off the boat in the Middle of the lake... Oh man.
I need to tell you about all this good stuff we'd do in Montana. Man, I'm missing it already.So. I used to work at this place called "Gates of the Mountains". It was a personal business, but known for it's tourists from all over the world. It was fantastic. People would come from all over the world to see these waters, and canyons. They would take this ferry ride, while the tour guide told of the ancient past within the caves and canyons. One year I worked their selling tickets. I sat in this booth and answered various questions, slid their credit cards through the machine, waited.... and waited.... and waited... until finally it'd go through. Then, that group would go and for probably an hour to an hour and a half I'd just hang out and help people in the gift shop. It was so much fun the first year. My friend Geni worked there, and she absolutely crazy. But it sure did make work more enjoyable to hear the crazy plans and pranks she'd done, or had yet to carry out. She was basically the class clown... but in a good way. It was almost her goal: to be Capital High School's Class Clown of 2005. She most definitely succeeded. You can check the records. It's just too bad that won't say all the things she did. But, that'd take another whole 10 pages. So I'm going to have to pass.
(Back to the rest of the story) So, being that I worked at "The Gates" my dad soon fell in love with the scenery, as did mom. They had mountain goats, Indian paintings, deer, all kinds of birds (I think I saw an eagle once.... or at least that's what I convinced myself it was), I never saw a bear, but I'm sure they were there.... I'm definitely not complaining though. Sometimes we'd bring all kinds of food to picnic with: hot dogs, burgers, chips, cookies.... you know, the unhealthy camping foods that are just a must! Then we'd just soak up the beauty around us, while enjoying the company of friends and family.
I'm feeling a bit nostalgic at the moment. I don't see too many lakes here ever, so most of the swimming and playing in water that I do here is at Debbies pool... or maybe if I'm brave, at campus plaza. I absolutely love that too, don't get me wrong! But, I still miss a few things about Montana life. Now wouldn't this be great... If maybe I could combine all the great people that I know here, and then move you all to Montana. That'd mean we'd probably have to move BYU... and all kinds of things... we could take probably a hundred churches with us and you'd still see them on almost every corner.
Well, I should probably head to my next class. Woot.... :0( On to take a test. It shouldn't be difficult...well hopefully not anyways. Well... I'm would apologize for the long, random blog I just wrote, but I'm quite happy with the memories that came flooding back. If only you could all see it. Some day maybe, when I catch up to y'all, I'll put pictures on this blog as well.
