Tomorrow is the last day of August, I’m a little shocked by that fact. I don’t know what happened to the last two months. One minute I had them the next they fell behind the couch never to be seen again.
I feel like despite the fact that they went by so quickly I made good use of them. I went from June having a quiet life and nothing to blog about to having lots of blog about but no desire to sit down and do so. Funny how that works.
Here is the low down on the last two months:
In July I went to the wedding of my very good friends S&S. They were nice enough to let me tag along with them for the drive up and back to the Okanagan. Once there we enjoyed food, friends, drinks and laughs. Then we had the wedding which involved more of the same but we threw in a forest fire evacuation just to keep things interesting. In spite of the evacuation the wedding and whole trip was really great and a tonne of fun. I ended up taking almost two full weeks off work, which was well worth it.
August had me going up and down the island a few times. Once to go pick up a futon from S&S, as they finally bought a grown up couch with the gift cards they received from the wedding, and once to go camping.
Camping was a lot of fun. It was the same crew from a couple years ago Indigo Eve, DC and myself, with the addition of Evil Monkey. (We tried to drag Bazette and Maggie too, but they couldn’t make it.) We headed down to the Lake Cowichan area and even though we couldn’t have a campfire due to the ban we had a great time. You can checkout my flickr set here (or in the widget to the right there possibly –>).
This weekend was another full weekend. Shopping in Nanaimo with Indigo Eve and Evil Monkey. Then a girls night at DC’s. Today Indigo Even, Maggie, Bazette and I hit the Fall Fair where we partook of the festivities: mini donuts, mocha frappes, zucchini races, photo booths (photos to come), Irish dancing, animals and tractors. Plus Indigo and I even got out for a bike ride, on trails with rather large logs across them. Since I am not quite that adept at mountain biking yet it required me to lift my bike over them, but it was fun and I didn’t crash into anything. 
Basically it has been a busy and fun couple of months. September is shaping up to be just as busy and fun with more camping, a long weekend in Victoria, games night and more biking planned.
I might even try and blog about things as they happen, though I wouldn’t count on it. 
Hope everyone has been having as much fun as me. For now I must go to bed, because all this fun is great but I’m definitely not getting enough sleep lately.
Ciao
