Update…

Filed Under Updates

Now that i’m back home, ill update you all on whats going on.

- Apparently the email to blog feature I was trying to use, broke. So ill eventually work on making sure the image/attachment upload works ok.

- I uploaded some of the images of my trip to Zion National Park to ilphotos.com

I got one more final to finish before I’m done for the summer, (Then I have one week of no school). I’m already not looking forward to it. While the class is very interesting, the instructor is very spirited and energetic which was refreshing; however the online execution of Biological Anthropology sucked, I’ve taken as many online classes as I can because I like the format. But, this one is almost kicking my ass… and it’s not a problem of difficulty its an issue of motivation. I’m honestly not that interested in doing the work necessary, the online discussions required for each week of class is very forced and the quality of the prose from the students was very poor. I don’t feel as if I want to write a forced reply to one of my peers. Jesus, learn to write without scratching your nails on the blackboard! Anyway, ill be glad that’s over.

I also just bought a plane ticket for my trip to see Larry & Laura in San Francisco, I’m planning on going during the first weekend of October. The plane ticket was a steal $119 (LAX to SFO, Round-Trip, Including Fees) from Virgin America. Hopefully ill be able to write a good review for them once I fly, Larry says that the airline seems pretty good. I hope they will start offering more flights to other cities.

Sunday Morning

Filed Under Live

As usual, I’m up and awake before anyone else… And I’m waiting for morning sunlight.

Yesterday I stole larrys car and took it up the canyons, got a shot or two, I was gone for an hour and a half… Larry didn’t like that.

On saturday the group got fitted for rental shoes and a walking stick (hint, bring your own stuff, they’re making a killing on rentals. Then we walked up the slot canyons. Of course I brought my tripod, and I think I got few good shots.

When we finally were finished the whole hike lasted about 5 hours, and according to my HRM I burned 3000 calories in those short hours.

Once we returned the rental gear we went out to dinner. Hint: don’t order italian stuff from a western themed restaurant; you’ll thank me later.

Well today we are planning on hiking angels landing, should be pretty awesome, and dangerous :)
