You know I'm a tired girl when I can think of no better title than "updates." But, I guess, updating is what I'm doing this evening. I have spent the better part of the past 2 weeks writing my heart out for our grant at work. It has been exhausting, frustrating, rewarding (because you know how I love to write!)...and as of this evening, I am finished writing! Tomorrow, we get the UA seal of approval (well, I'm sure it's more involved than that, but that works for now) and I will hand deliver it to its final destination. Whew!!



Of course, after spending all day at my work computer, one of the last things I really wanted to do was to come home and start writing again...but I can't have you think we got eaten by a bear!



So...You're probably wondering how our canoe trip went. I would just like to say the trip was...well...for lack of better terminology, different. I can't say it was bad, because it wasn't. It had its frustrating moments, but overall, it was fun! And I do believe we would do it again...yes, again. With one stipulation...

I think I may let the pictures do the explaining.

And then let you guess what that stipulation is...

I'll try to give a more detailed story of our time later...but consider yourself pretty lucky you've gotten this much right now!! :)
