Pat - Hiya! I'm alive...wearing a heart monitor right now, since my clunky ticker keeps trying new tricks, but it still works!
Geezer - Yes'sir!
I've been busy volunteering for an animal rescue. Since it's a little independent group, we're struggling to keep afloat. It doesn't get funding like the big places such as Best Friends, Humane Society or even the county/city shelters. Volunteers are hard to come by (and GOOD ones are even harder to get!).
While I like doing it, I'm sort of feeling burned out a bit lately, and want to find/make time for other things I enjoy. Already been camping once this year - in April I went out to Antelope Island. Was going to watch the meteor shower, but of course it got cloudy after midnight *pout*

Debating if I want to try staying in a yurt up at East Canyon... the only "perk" they have (as far as I'm concerned) is an electrical outlet... otherwise, I might as well just sleep in my car and save $40!
I'm trying to hurry and get chores done, because I want to go see if Adams Reservoir is any good. I like Holmes creek, but the hike back up just about kills me! I hope Adams isn't as steep (and yes, I already have my walk-in permit)
