So, I was catching up on things and realized that I apparently didn't have much to say in March. Hmm.. either that or I was really busy with things that I didn't write down. March always does that to me. I'm always like "yeah, it's March and my birthday" at the beginning and then I'm like "it's not April yet is it?" Just crazy.
Not too much happened. I went traveling to Ely for a weekend to visit my buddy Brad. I just got back from a friend's wedding in souther Missouri. It's amazing to me how much people freak out down there about snow! They make rocky mountain and west coast drivers seem like kamakazi drivers in the snow. That and it's a completely different culture down there. It was a learning experience, but still fun. My mom drove down with me and it was an enjoyable time spent together.
So, just when I get back to Wisconsin and get all comfortable, that's when I get a call from my dream job place- The National Park Service- and start planning to go to Arizona during the summer. I must be nuts! Do you know how hot it gets down there in the summer?! Really Hot! My dad sort of joked/ sort of was serious about getting me a $100 gift card to Walgreens so that I'd have enough sunscreen to get me through the 6 months I'm there! There's truth to that though, I'm totally going to fry! Bring on the freckles baby! Whoooo!
In all seriousness though, I'm stoked! I'm excited to be back working for an organization that I believe in and working at some really sweet locations and able to do some fun things. First on the agenda is to summit Humphrey's Peak before monsoon season kicks in. That's the tallest peak in Arizona just north of Flagstaff. Again, really excited! So yeah, there are good things happening these days in my life. I can't complain. I could use a really good full body massage though! Happy trails and go out adventuring to you all!
