Random ramblings from a guy who's enjoying the ride...my thoughts on what God's been teaching me lately...who know what might all show up here...I guess it's a place for me to keep a slightly more public version of my daily journaling.

I'm Baaaack!

Wow, what a weekend. Quite eventful indeed. I have to go to sleep now, but here's a quickie.

The hiking/camping at Riding Mountain National Park was absolutely awesome. God is amazing. It was so beautiful. And definitely,without a doubt, the hardest, most challenging hike I have ever done in my life. Probably the most physically demanding thing I have done ever. Good times indeed.

So we get back to Mark W's place in the city and I carry all my gear to the car...I was carrying my hiking backpack, a daypack, my camera bag, and my boots. I put it all on the trunk of my car while I got my keys out. Unlocked the door....into the car goes the backpack, the other backpack, the boots....STUPID ME I FORGOT THE CAMERA ON THE TRUNK!

Driving home now. No more than two minutes later I was going to call someone on my cell which was in my camera bag. I look beside me. I glance in the back seat. Panic sets in. I pull to the side of the road and turn the light on. Nothing. Pulled the fastest u-turn and sped back to Mark's place. Nothing. Not a fun ride home.

Turns out that my mom tried calling my cell while I was on the way home, and a girl answered. She had found my camera and had turned on the cell. Smart girl. Unfortunately the camera had been driven over by a car or something. Not totally sure, 'cause I haven't seen it yet. Hopefully I can pick it up monday. I feel like a parent whose child is hurt, but they can't help them, 'cause they're somewhere else. Poor camera. I just hope my compact flash cards are ok, 'cause I got some SWEET pictures on the trip.

Ok bubye.
