Life in the Highlands

So there was this book Kori and I listened to on the way back from Texas called "Atherton". It's a fictional story about a land created after we humans ruin this earth. The new "world" has 3 divisions: the low lands, Tabletop and the Highlands. Of course all the stone hearted, privileged people live in the Highlands. Sometimes I think about that while I'm here living at Mom & Dad's... in Highland. Definitely privileged, but not stone hearted people live here.

Anyways, so Belle (Mom's puppy) graduated from puppy kindergarten the other day. She had to pass lots of "tests". Including walking down an isle that dog treats had been strewn down and not picking up a single one till Mom said it was ok. Congratulations Belle! Mom, Kona and I were there in support. When she graduated they gave her a milkbone that was about the size of her. I don't think she really knew what to do with it, but Kona was sure jealous.

Below that is Kona helping me post some of our old stuff on ebay. Here she is posing with the backpack. She did a good job. It's selling for over $15
Also below is a picture of a turtle I drew in Texas. I got a bunch of pictures off my phone with a new memory card I got, so I thought I'd put some up.































































































This is an ad I saw at the airport. I liked it so I thought I'd share. In case you can't read the writing it says:
"My friend just got himself a brand new 62-inch plasma tv. He says when you're watching a show, it feels like you're actually there. Seems like it would make watching the nightly news a little freaky though. I haven't had a chance to see his TV yet, but it's on my to-do list. My friend says you can't find a panoramic picture like it anywhere. "anywhere?" I said. "yeah, anywhere," he said.
Yep, must be one heck of a TV.
Out is in.

So one Saturday we had off, Sven took B rad and I up Baxter's Pinnacle. It was a blast. We had great weather and we managed to turn the 4 pitch climb into 2 pitches. The pic of me and kona is from the Grand Canyon.
