Tricia's Partial Mutterings

Bishop Part 2

Well I uploaded a bunch of pictures this afternoon. There is about three more rolls though from the underwater cameras. Those should be fun to see!

More on my weekend. On Saturday I totally ate it in my tube. I jumped on it and ended up flipping over backwards. My head slammed against the rocks and I scrapped up the back of my neck. I have a nastey bump on my head. But the rest of Saturday went smoothly.

I lost so much stuff! I'm most mad that I lost my sunglasses. It takes me FOREVER to pick them out! Oh well, I did it in the name of being a hero. On Sunday, Crystal ran into a bush and it knocked her off her tube. The current was super strong, but her tube got caught in a bush. I grabbed her for a little bit, but she got pulled away from me. So I grabbed some sticks hanging from the bank. This is where the heroness starts... Everyone else gets pulled down a little further and there's me, now standing in the current with my tube. I'm staring at Crystal's tube about 10 feet from me stuck in the bushes and silly me throws my drink off to the side, let's go of my own tube for them to fish, puts my sunglasses in my suit, and breathes. So I leap into the water like a beautiful dolphin (have to make this somewhat poetic) and then I swam like hell. In the mean time I'm ignoring everyone else saying, "JUST LET GO! FORGET THE TUBE!" Somehow I, the hero, get the tube loose and lost my damn sunglasses. I totally thought that they wouldn't come out. Man, I was wrong. Even through this my brand new, pink bandana was still attached to my neck.

Yah, the bandana didn't last much longer. I lost that somewhere by the exit. Some how I lost my flips too. You think I would NEED shoes to leave. So I'm in the market for some new flips and some sunglasses.

That night I made some peachy keens for everyone. Man, totally hit the spot and they loved them! Now Wes can't make fun of my "Girl Scout food." I'm thinking about trying some armpit fudge next time, but I'm not really a big fan of the stuff. I just want them to be amazed how you can stick some cheese with some other stuff all in your armpit and eat it and like it.

Today we drove home. Traffic wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. I finally took out my digital camera to take some Monkey shots. I'm a slacker! It was a good group to go on a road trip with. I would do a repeat of Saturday in a heart beat.
