Sorry to all for the lack of posting I have actually been working my ass off these past few weeks since my last post. Also lots of things have changed. First and foremost is my job I am now working for one of the people who I first meet here in Red Lodge Wilf Struck I am working as a consultant so I have had to set up my own consulting company will all the proper forms and taxes that that includes. lots of fun with that. As far as the job is concerned I am really enjoying it I have been overwhelmed with the amount of work to do so that has been great. I can now also say that I have gotten paid to go snowmobiling! I had to leave town last week kind of last minute and head to ID to help Wilf with some public meetings over a mine that one of the companies that we work for is proposing to put in in Elk City ID. so after 11.5 hours of driving we arrived in the bustling metropolis of Elk City all of 200 max people. More about that later but I will finish catching you up as to our goings on first.
We played in another Hockey tournament last weekend in billings and it was much better then we had originally planed for. The reffing that had been horrible last year was only somewhat bad this year and last years problem of people jumping from team to team was also dealt with so that was cool. But unfortunately Team RL is still with out an official win (unless we are on home ice!) we lost Friday night 4-6 and then sat morning we played a dam good game in the morning and ended with a 9-9 score not bad, we must have spent all our energy because we got spanked on sat night in front of 20 or so hard core RL fans 11-3. Sunday morning we played for the 7-8th place in the tournament and ended up loosing 4-7 we really could have won but ended with 2 empty net goals. oh well it was a good time.
There is also a farewell to a good friend, Christy my parents dog and my dog growing up had to be put to sleep this morning so my feelings go out to my parents and my sister she will be dearly missed. it is amazing how much you miss a dog that will roll in anything and the stinkier the better there was one time that I remember backpacking with her in the Flattops Wilderness and she must have rolled in some rotting carcus OH MAN that smell brought tears to my eyes I had to get in a mtn lake that must have been 34 deg and washed her off but the smell didn't go away and we had to sleep in a tent with her that night man you thought dog farts were bad that was the worst. She was the most loving dog I have ever known so excited to see everyone especially Stu, man she would get so excited she pee on the carpet before he even got to the door.
Christy we will miss you.
On the Dog health note we happy to let you know that Cooper is doing great and has not had any more seizures so that is awesome. I think he is really enjoying the medication seeing how we have to give it to him with food he now gets hot dogs twice a day.
Well that is all the news for now I will be bloging more as we go and will elaborate on some of the stuff above and will add pictures later.
