Making the Most of my Day!

I biked 18miles today, floated the Yellowstone river, met up with an old friend, looked for an apartment, met new friends, watched the sunset, and went to work for 5 hours. Each thing done with quality. Can't waste a good day!!

Searching for the Impossible

For some reason, I always tend to get myself in interesting situations... After getting off work early, I decide to apartment search, and cutting out some details, I decided to look at a studio apartment I was pretty sure I wasn't interested in. The apartment wasn't available to see, but I started talking to a woman outside and see if she liked it.

 She offered to show me her place, so we went up to the third floor and had a look around. Ashley was fantastic, and it just so happens, she her apartment will be available the same time I'm looking to move in. We had fun, but she had to run off and meet some friends...

To my surprise, I knew the driver, Trevor, who I've been meaning to catch up with since I came back in May! So, on a whim, he invited me to go floating with them on the Yellowstone River. Ashley let me borrow a swim suit, and hopped in a car with 6 other people and 2 dogs.

The flooding made the river fantastically fast, and we finished up in only a third of the time. We beached out on a rocky island to catch some sun, and spent the rest of the time swatting mosquitoes at the take out point. At one point we were dancing on the highway bridge, the only place the wind was strong enough to blow them away, and dancing to keep warm. :)

A wonderful man slowed down in his car,  and smiled with a can of bug spray in his hands. He handed a new can of Off, and waved goodbye. I don't know how to ever thank him!

So after a lovely ride back to Bozeman, snuggling back up in the car, I grabbed my things from Ashleys apartment... and had to figure out how to get back home.... Belgrade... about 10 miles away.

Skipping more details... I picked up some dinner to go, and finished biking the 18 miles total (for the day) into the sunset.

What a day!!

Not everyone does crazy things like this... but its just a normal part of my life.. finding things I thought were impossible, then proving myself wrong. And who knows, I just might be moving into Ashley's apartment now :)

Dear New Boss,

Someday I'll tell you that the day you hired me, I withdrew the last $30 from my bank, rode to work on a borrowed bike, and am sleeping on a camping mat in a house where I dog sit, 10miles from town.

In no way am I complaining, just humored by the fact that I'm basically a homeless person who just got hired to work as an executive assistant. Hopefully by the time you find this out, you'll know I'm an outstanding employee, and love this job... and really needed it.

Reguards,

Capri

Grand Targhee Resort Summer Festival

Still on the Job hunt, so I figured I mind as well enjoy the meantime. Somehow landed back into the music industry helpin' out with concerts and stage work, and here I sit in a luxury condo at Grand Targhee Resort with an all access pass, private pool privileges, and all you can eat catering. Not a bad deal at all! Got the rest of the day off to enjoy the concert, then we'll pack up the show till we greet tomorrows sunrise.

Take time to Discover the Beauty in Life
