The 2008 Turkey Hunt

For the past couple years Brian and I have gone turkey hunting in St. George with Brian's brother Steve. This year we had plenty of tags to fill - Me, Brian, Jeff, Lynn, Nan, Jonathon, Zac, Courtney and Nicole... And I think that was all. The first weekend, we were all there and had a blast. We saw a lot of turkeys and did a lot of 4-wheeling. Ryan got to shoot his dad's shot gun too. We also got to go to the Rocky Mountain Elk Foundation Banquet and Zions National Park and the Mountain Meadow Massacre Memorial Site. No one got a turkey that weekend though. The next weekend, both Brian and Jeff shot a turkey and they were delicious. The third weekend Brian and Lynn went hunting with Nicole and Courtney, but no one had any luck.

I DID IT!

I did it! I accomplished my first ever bike ride. My friend Christa and I rode 36 miles in 3 hours (on Mountain Bikes no less) last Saturday. I felt very accomplished and proud of myself. I am still sore and tired two days later, but it was all worth it. My next ride is June 7th and I am hoping to ride the 45 mile route. Wish me luck in my training...
