Utah.. the past few days

Well, I volunteered for the paleo people the past couple of days.  I've been cleaning and reassembling dinosaur bones.  Pretty cool stuff.   I am also definitely going on field with them when my brother goes.

Yesterday, I dropped my brother off at work and went to the animal sanctuary.  I took a tour of the sanctuary and went to a volunteer orientation.
I hope I can foster a cat while I'm here.
The sanctuary is basically located on some hills/cliffs.. I'll take photos when I get the chance.
After the sanctuary, I went home had another burrito =P and went to the lab to work on the dinosaur bones.

I borrowed my brother's boss' dvd of Avatar.. so, I finally watched the movie.. not in 3d, but it was still good.  ...
I also watched The Secret Lives of Pippa Lee recently.. I really liked it.. I'd recommend it to friends.. depending on who they are..if I think they would like it. 

Welllll, we missed farmer's market.. totally forgot about it.   Next week, then.  Guess we'll have to go get some veggies from the grocery store.  
 I'm getting tired of burritos.. I didn't think I'd say this so soon, but I miss home cooking.  Oh and food, gas, things are more expensive up here... but, cans of beans were around 89cents lol... good deal.

Hm, my brother wants to go hiking in hip-high water.... the narrows in Zion... I'm not so sure I'm up for it right now... but, we have found a lot of cool places to check out... but, like my bro's boss said, we only have so many weekends...  I don't feel like going anywhere today.. but, there is a hiking trail to some native american reservation ruins nearby.... maybe, we'll go there today.

Utah day 5-6

Well, sorry to bore you.. but, not much happening.  lol 

There are plans, but they're stillll in progress.. so meanwhile, I'm waiting and wasting...

I did begin a painting today.. and went grocery shopping. 
Woohoo! 

Anyway, I am most probably going to either Bestfriends or my brother's workplace, tomorrow.  Apparently, there's a lady at his work that could use my help.. I've also been invited to help out on the field... my brother says they'll probably put me to work in the lab.  Beats sitting around in a dark basement most of the day. 

I've been updating my ipod.. so, I finally have a lounge playlist~_~ 

I think the lack of shelving exercise is creeping up on me...  My brother's been telling me to take walks...  and, I've been lazy about it... but, I guess I'll get to it.  I'm also gonna do some yoga and pilates. 

Had vegetarian chili and crackers for dinner:)

*finally figured out why I couldn't upload pics here..

Utah day 3-4

After a late start on Sunday, my brother and I went exploring through the surrounding parks, campsites and paths off the highway.. onto no named roads..

After hours of searching, we came across the perfect (well despite it being so close to road noise) place to camp.  We hung out a while, but decided to come back another time.  It's beautiful, with the Grand staircase (we think)  wrapping around one side and distant hill/cliffs wrapping down another side.  It had a lot of plant life and we saw quite a lot of what my brother thinks is deer droppings. There were a lot of flies, but I guess I'll load up on the powder next time.  The sun sets pretty late around here (during this time in the year, I guess)... around 9:30pm+.

So, apparently we have a tiny field mouse in the house... my brother saw it running around.  =P  I might freak out if it comes out of nowhere or near me.. my bro said it's pretty fast.  I just hope it doesn't come close to me when I'm asleep... sauna's looking good as my bedroom right about now.

I should be going to the animal sanctuary tomorrow, but we'll see.

We're going to have dinner with our neighbors, upstairs sometime.  The lady is a vegetarian so that's nice.. don't know when we're planning on it though.

Today, I didn't do anything.

Well, goodnight yall!
