The first was my first wetsuit :)
You can see every bulge of fat in this thing... |
The second was swimming in a big lake. If you've never been to bear lake, it's huge!
Water, water everywhere... |
I slept in a hammock for the first time not in my house. It was so much fun!
The hammock I used |
I'm still finding sand in my hair... |
I became much better friends with these fabulous people!
Look at all those attractive people! :) |
I sang all the way there and back an eclectic mix of EFY music, pop, and latino music along with listening to general conference talks with some of the most fabulous women I know.
I got candid photos taken of me that I wasn't able to avoid for the first time! :P And also the first time I've put vanilla and cinnamon in my french toast mix!
I don't always use a grill, but when I do, it's almost always to cook french toast. |
I needed time to recharge and reset. This trip helped me do so immensely :). It gave me strength enough to...
..."Just keep swimming."
Vanilla and cinnamon in french toast mix is the only thing that makes french toast worth having! (And it makes it very worth it!) Glad you finally discovered it.
ReplyDeleteCurtis, I loved the trip also but reading your very interesting and entertaining thoughts gave me an entirely new perspective. Thanks for expanding my appreciation of our experience and thanks for your constant service. Bishop Sloan
ReplyDeleteI LOVE this blog post! I love the face you are making while at the grill and of course, the reference to Dos Equis (classic!) I love how you talk about enjoying all the simple things like swimming to nowhere, making sand angels, and trying vanilla french toast. I love finding adult "firsts" myself! (The other day I found a sand dollar on the beach-- had never seen one outside of a souvenir shop and when they are alive they look so crazy different). I liked the analogy at the end to swimming. Also, I too, LOVE wetsuits! Best. Idea. Ever. Now they just need to figure how to make them so they are not so dang hard to put on. ;) Maybe if they did though, we'd just start wearing them everywhere just in case we pass a pool on the way home from work. ;) I guess we can't have that... or can we?? I may just be onto something, afterall! ;)
