I am so poooped. I've never been so tired after a day of work since my last day at Syringa. That was mostly because I was hungover and over tired.

I drove up to Penticton yesterday to do some lake sampling. I got the opportunity last week at our regional meeting when the guys from Penticton were looking for people who had the time to come up and do some sampling. I always have the time to do things so I am up this week.

The drive up yesterday was so beautiful. I left a cloudy, wintery Castlegar and entered a sunny spring Okanagan. I had to have the windows down it was so warm out. I stopped once for gas but I was having too much fun driving and listening to Peeping Tom. Luckily it was the only cd I brought with me and I'm not complaining. I've listened to it four hours in a row and I'm still not sick of it. Although most of the time I would be singing a long to words I don't know so when I do listen it's like I'm hearing a completely different song.

I slept well last night and was excited to watch the life network and other televison stations I don't get. I checked out the biggest independent board shop in BC as well. It wasn't as impressive as it's made out to be but I found a touque there.

I have been bored but right now I'm too tired to do anything. I'm thinking about later on going down to denny's and getting a salad since I need vegetables and dennys is in the hotel so I don't have to go far. Although after today I don't know if I'll make it. I have a feeling I'm just going to end up curling up into the chair and having dinner here.

Today's lake sampling was awesome. It was quick and painless and got more painful as the day went on because of the wind. On our way back we drove as fast as we could to avoid getting caught in a storm. It was so fun as we crashed continuously into the waves. I'm impressed. I think we were running a 140 marine jet motor or something with internal propellors. I can't say that I didn't think the boat was going to capsize.

The afternoon wasn't as good because I left my lunch in my car and it was driven back to the office so I had to wait until after we got back, got the boat hooked up, got the samples out to Maxam and got everything ordered and cleaned up that I ate. One reason why I'm not that hungry now.

Anyways tomorrow we're going up to Okanagan Lake which is exciting because we get to go to Kelowna and I love Kelowna. I know we won't be seeing much of it but it is one of my favorite places out here. The biggest city to me!

Warren sucks right now.
