Random thoughts

The Sierras have numerous lakes speckling the mountain sides.

Yesterday we went on a hike. 

There was one heck of a view. 

My mood at this time: Sort of.... melancholy. Like...... I think I might need to go use that punching bag which is currently standing in the closet of my bedroom.

Currently loving: Allied P.O.W.s during WWII. I think I will end up doing a post on them sometime in the near-ish future. They are awesome.

Currently reading: Just finished Howl's Moving Castle by Diana Wynne Jones. She was a brilliant author and I love her books. The Colditz Story by P. R. Reid, and Moonless Night by Jimmy James. They are incredible books which will be included in my P.O.W post. :)

Currently watching: Doctor Who, Remington Steele (only the clean ones, the later seasons can get a little.... not clean.) Hogan's Heroes, Tintin, and the Avengers. We watch a lot of movies/TV shows.

Currently listening to: Les Miserables musical, the Clancy Brothers, the Script's Hall of Fame, and Awake by Josh Groban.

                      

Currently planning: To go and take pictures of leaf trees. Lots of pictures. Maybe have a photo-shoot.
I also really want to find more time to draw, I've been super busy.
I want to watch The Great Escape again.
I want to write some more in my W.I.P.
I must find a way to make my school research paper as epic as I want it to be.
I should wash our doggeh, Sam.

That's all for today peoples! :)

God bless,

And then.... Fun! Lots of fun!

Yeah..... What the post's title said.

You know those days where everything goes perfectly? **nods** That was today.

My sister Amy decided that we needed to get out of the house. So we packed a picnic lunch, and drove with the Mother and the Wee Sisters to.... Here!

And um.... it was awesome. There was, as you can see, a creek, which was so cold our ankles ached until we numbed up. Welcome to mountain life, people: the land of loads of snow and frozen ankles. =) 

We were absolutely, completely alone, and seeing as I am borderline agoraphobic, that just about suited me fine. 

We took way too many pictures. Like.....way. 

Annie kicks water so adorably. Just sayin'.

The creek had lots of little islands. (I know they have an official name, but you know what? Official names are overrated.)

This is me, the great explorer. Exploring. See what I discovered? Aren't I amazing? :)

*Treskie trills songs from Oklahoma!* "There's a bright golden haze on the meadooooow....ooooooh what a beautiful mooooorning....!"

I don't usually goof around and take retarded pictures of strange poses. But I'm beginning to see the appeal. We are spies. We do spy things... Like wear super cool spy sunglasses. Do not try this at home.

Incidentally, I was wearing my Psych outfit:

This is what I thought I looked like: 

This is what I really looked like:

Then we built a house. A small, elf sized house. It looked more like one of those tropical island huts. My mom referred to it as a Gilligan's Island hut. 

I thought it looked more like the shack in Father Goose:

And I went around saying, "ALL of them, Frank!" In my best Cary Grant imitation. Heheh

All in all I'd vote that the day just about reached the 'pink of perfection'. It was so nice and relaxing. And I only got a tad sunburned. Hardly noticeable. *cough, cough*

And that's about as much as I have to offer for the evening. **waves**

God bless!
