Busy, Busy!!

Once again we've got acouple of weekends coming up where we'll be swamped doing fun things so hopefully we'll take pictures along the way so I can post them when the crazyness dies down again.
This Saturday is the Vegoose festival, actually it's all weekend but we just bought Saturday tickets cause thats when everyone we want to see is performing. We'll be seeing The Killers, Tom Petty, Damion Marley, and The Racatours. They have a Little White Chapel there where you can get "married." Justin and i didn't do it last year but I think we're going to have to this year. They have a front of a chapel, you stand in front of the doors and the drunk priest marries you, then a music legend (Elvis, Ozzy, or Tina Turner) come out and sing a song as your first dance. It's awsome. Some co-workers are going so we'll have to have them come to our wedding and have them take pics.
Next weekend, Nov 2-6, we're flying to Chicago for my Birthday! We'll stay with Justin's parents and hang out with his friends, shop, and see King Tut at the Field Museum.
So hopefully between then and Thanksgiving I can post pics and talk about our fun times, then when Thanksgiving comes around we're going to San Jose to our friends place for turkey day with thier family then we'll be taking off the next day and driving to Lake Tahoe for the weekend! Busy, busy!!

Lost

Ok sorry I forgot about last week. I saw the episode but had been working crazy hours so my motivation was zero.
This epi was really painful to watch..poor Sawyer. He got the crap kicked out of him several times, thought he had an exploding pace maker in his chest (I knew they were bluffing), I'm surprised that Ben told him so quickly that he was conned.
So what the hell, there's two islands!? And I don't remember when this was in the show but did Ben mention a submarine? How in the heck do the others get back and forth between the islands so quickly. I mean they had that whole fake village set up, they just seem like they are constantly on "our" island harrasing our group. And where the heck are all the ppl that got taken from the Tallies? Where are the kids? Ugh i'm so frusterated.

Lost!

It looks like Jack might turn to the dark side over a game of Baseball? And I thought he was stronger than that, but I guess that's only when he thinks he can fix a person/situation.
I wasn't really surprised that they had security camera's on Sawyer and Kate, but I'm sure those two figure it out soon when they try some escape stunt. The best line came from Kate "you taste like a fishbiscut" Oh man I was rolling after that line, usually Hurley's got the best line.
I liked the Sun flashbacks, I was surprised that she would actually cheat on Jin, I mean I know she wanted to leave him but if only Jin knew what her father was really talking about when he wanted Jin to restore the "family honor."
I'm sorry this is really short but I just worked 11 hours today and I'm really tired.

LOST!!!

Hurry! Lost has once again come back into our lives!
Ok, was that not the most messed up intro ever? Here I thought this bookclub was taking place in sububia somewhere and this is how the Others live! Our group is living on a beach in shelters made out of aircraft and they have a fricken village.
I'm guessing that the lady is messin with Jack first because he's the strongest and the leader of the group and they plan on breaking all three into submission one way or another.
I was really bored with Jack's flashback...for a season opener I was disappointed and I didn't really feel sorry for him at all. But I did feel sorry for him for having to be caged up in an aquarium, man that's messed up. Then of course having sawyer doing animal intelligence tests to get some kibble and a fish cookie...that was just painful, yet kinda funny to watch him do his happy dance waiting I'm sure for a cheeseburger to come out of the shoot.
Well we know at least that everyone in the Others village doesn't conform to "Henry Gale" and his rules, I wonder what that poor kid did to get locked up in that other cage. Henry's real name was said at the end, was it Ben?

The last month

Whew! I'm sorry Rayna, I didn't know it had been that long since I'd last posted. Anyways so I've posted a bunch of pics showing off some of the things that we've been up too.
Our trip to Utah was great! We stopped in St. George, UT to see their dinosaur footprint trackways and man was that impressive! We took a lot of pics but they are kinda hard to see what's in the pic so I'm not going to bother. It only took us about 4 hours to get up to where were decided to camp for the weekend..in an RV park in Delta UT, lol. Ok so we weren't really "roughing it" but it was still camping. We did lots of mineral collecting during our trip and had a blast collecting trilobites, little sea creatures that lived long ago. We came back tired and with even more rocks/fossils to add to the garage shelves but we also came back to the "real world" relaxed and refreshed. It's amazing what a little geology can do for the soul lol.
This last Tuesday-Sunday, Justin's dad Dana and his bro Jason were in town for a firefighter/paramedic convention. Everynight the guys all would go out to some casino..and I would let them. Then everyday they were really tired and I was just fine, lol, I like my sleep too much. On Saturday we all went to Red Rock park because Jason hadn't been yet. We saw the gorgeous sites and took some pics. Then Sunday we grilled burgers for lunch on the patio and played Clue and Uno until it was time to take them to the airport.

In other news I'm totally addicted to a new show, Heroes. Did any of you see it? Then of course Lost starts up again on Wednesday!!

Here is Jason, Dana and Justin. Justin's dad and bro were in town this last week for the annual Emergency Medical Service Convention for paramedics and firefighters and this year it was in Las Vegas! So here the guys are at Red Rock.

Here is myself, Justin and Jason (Justin's bro) we are at Red Rock posing in the failed sandstone quarry. What a good looking group!

Here we are after a successful day looking for fabulous Trilobites. We had been hiking back and forth from the dig site to the car with several 5 gallon buckets full of trilobites, then there was the matter of trying to fit it all into an already cramped car full of camping gear but with some creative re-arranging we got it all in!

Ok, so Justin's not the best photographer but it's all I got here. So this is me in Utah and I am pointing to a lovely Trilobite that I had just found, it's the little circular thing just to the right of my finger. The whole trilobite species when extinct about 250 million years ago in the great Permian Extinction which killed 90% of all living things. (Exciting, I know) This guy that I have here is pretty early in the evolutionary chain of Trilobites but unfortunatly they guy working at the fossil site couldn't remember the age of the formation we're in...sigh.
