Secretarying

Well, the 2007 USAS/UPAC Convention is officially OVER!!! Celebrate one less thing to juggle! It went off well, though, and I'm tired but satisfied. I was, as expected, voted in as statewide secretary. The President's Meeting was this morning and went fairly well. I'm sitting here trying to work up the motivation to type up the minutes and get them sent off to the webmaster, now. Oy. But I don't think things will be as difficult as they could be, so I suppose I'll survive and it'll be a good experience to operate with such a good-sized organization.

Other than that, work goes well, and I'm completely happy. Wish we'd gotten more snow-pack in the mountains--fire season is gonna be bad--but for the most part it's going to be a light field-season. In light of my continuing back problems, it's probably for the best.

That said, I'm jetting off Thursday with John to see the Manti Pageant and crash overnight with a friend there. Then on to Zion NP for a weekend camping trip with the Jolley-Odenwalder clan...well, the parts not in Taiwan and Florida! It should be really fun and a nice opportunity to see how John handles three days in the wilderness...a critical test-point for me. =)

You know, one of these days, he's gonna start reading this and I'll be in trouble for everything I've written. =) That said, he'll actually probably get a kick out of it. Things are going well, but we're trying to keep it slow, though, so, he won't read this anytime soon. Too much random musing-style bizarroness for a boy to handle until he's thoroughly smitten. =)

It's now 171 days until Angela and I fly out for our Disney trip. She still doesn't know the details, and I figure there perfect for the flight rather than anytime before then. But I think we're both doing relatively well at staying excited for a trip that's still more than a season away!
