I will let him write one for yesterday because it was another great day.
But, onward to today. It was great day 3 to the long weekend we are having. I had to work last night at the RCMP until midnight, so when I got home, Tyler and I just went straight to bed. I had to wake up early to workout. I know that if I skip one day, it will ruin my motivation to workout every day. So, after complaining a whole lot about how I didn't want to get up, and why did Tyler have to make plans for 10am, I finally got around to doing my workout. Today was legs and back, and my legs are now like jelly worms. It's really pathetic.
We ate breakfast and got ready for our day plans. We went out kayaking to Shearwater with Kendra and Graham. Kendra works in the pharmacy and Graham is her boyfriend. Tyler signed out the key and we got all the equipment ready to go. We did tandem kayaking this time, which I loved and Tyler hated. I sat in the front. I loved it because Tyler and I were together the whole time. He wasn't speeding ahead of me, leaving me behind to fend for myself and I liked that we could both enjoy the trip together. Tyler hated it because he loves going fast and said I was slowing him down and lot of other encouraging things. It took us about an hour to get to Shearwater. There was complaining all around about how the arms were hurting and all that. It was a tough trip. Across the channel and then around a bend. I did this all super terrified. I have become scared again of the ocean because of how close the whales were getting to the shore. If they were that close, then they were every where. Even last night, I was having nightmares about us tipping out of the kayak and a whale brushing up against my leg. It creeped me out, but it turned out to be a really fun time.
Once we finally got to Shearwater, we had no idea where to park the kayaks. We just left them on the dock and hoped no one would take them. We were sure no one would because why would someone take a boat you have to power yourself, when there are motor boats all over the place. We went to the restaurant. I like the food in that restaurant better then the one here on Bella Bella. The food is less greasy over there. I ordered a tuscan chicken burger and Tyler had just a regular burger with bacon. They were both really good. When we done, we walked around the sleepy little town. Nothing was going on. We walked to a place that looked like a tug boat grave yard. There were a whole bunch of tug boats up on blocks, most needing a good painting. We decided to head back to Bella Bella because I have to go back into the RCMP again at 4pm till midnight, and I wanted to get a little nap in there.
The trip back home seemed a lot shorter, and we were back home in no time. We put the kayak stuff away and headed for the shower. And then we napped. It was wonderful. Only for an hour, so by the time you wind down and actually fall asleep, you don't get that long of a nap.
I know this blog comes early today but thats because Tyler isn't going to do anything tonight (his words) so I might as well just blog now.
It's been a really fun long weekend that wasn't planned. We had no idea what we were going to be doing, but we have managed to have a really great time. It's the first long weekend in a long time, we have been together so it's nice to be doing things together.
I will tell Tyler to write about his night last night for your reading pleasure.
I wonder what tomorrow has in store for us?!?!?

So I forgot to post my blog last night. I did write one, but Sonja had the computer and had to resort to writing it on my phone. I was invited out to a campfire on the beach around 9 o'clock so in the rush I forgot to actually post the blog. I sent it through my email but didn't get it online until this afternoon. The campfire was good. It didn't rain and wasn't cold. We were out there for two hours or so when the campfire exploded. Literally exploded. It shot coals at my and I had the fire sitting in my lap. I rolled off of the log I was sitting on and got all the coals off of me. I survived with no burns and a sore elbow from hitting the ground. We decided to call it a night then. We looked around as to why it exploded and we decided that it was because the fire was build beside an excess concrete dump pile. There was some moisture in there and the heat made it explode. There were chunks of concrete beside the log i was on and you can see where it blew off of the dump pile. I was lucky none of that hit me. It was pretty crazy.
