Man it is hard to get Internet here in Dawson Creek. They offer free WiFi in the downtown core but for some reason it isn’t working and I haven’t hooked up the Internet in my apartment. But anyways.

Yesterday seems like a blur, as I didn’t do much. I lay in my camper for most of the morning listening to the rain falling and pound onto the tin roof. Finally venturing into the house when the rain stopped around noon my brother and I set off to town. The 45 minute drive was delayed a lovely 30 minutes because of road construction but it wouldn’t be summer with out it. Once we arrived in town I convinced my brother to help me unload my truck at my apartment before disappearing to the skatepark. When we finished unpacking the truck it was about 3 o’clock and by that point it was very hot outside. Just standing in one spot was making me sweet. I started to sort out my “crap” and put it in place. My loving mother had packed me some dry food and kitchen for stuff and I hadn’t realized how much stuff it really was. I ended up with multiple boxes of hamburger helper, packs of sidekick noodles, 4 jars of peanut butter as well as 3 jars of her homemade strawberry jam (keep an eye out for her at the craft sales this Christmas season) and much more stuff.

Soon enough 4:30 rolled around Bev showed up at the apartment and helped me move in the bigger stuff while we waited for Ken to get off work. We then picked up Taylor and Ken and split up into the 2 vehicles again and left town. Of course on our way back to East Pine we got caught in the construction again, but no biggy.

The evening was a nice, cool, relax one in the house and we had the famous ribs the literally fall off the bone. The rest of the night was uneventful and I felt exhausted but couldn’t think of why because I really didn’t do much.

As I think about it now I wasn’t online much yesterday even when it was available. I think the trick is to cut yourself off cold turkey and then you won’t see the need to always be online. Ha. I bet that will change again when I get internet in my place.

Well that was yesterday and now is the today.

We (my brother and I) had to head up to Fort St. John to he could catch a plane to Vancouver for his skateboarding tour. I had set my alarm for 8am and we were going to leave by 9am. So when the alarm on my phone went off at 8am I got up and went into the house to wake my brother. Upon doing so he yelled at me exclaiming that it was only 7am. Confused and not convinced I spent a good 15 minutes searching for something that would have the proper time. Realizing the landline phone had the time on it and sure enough it was only 7:15. Not caring that I had gotten up early I left my brother along and proceded throwing stuff into the truck to take to the apartment later in the day.

The drive to the Fort St. John Airport was quick, as I didn’t have to go through any construction sites. They have a really nice airport, a slight bit smaller than Yellowknife’s but very modern. We waited for a while and then it was time for Taylor to board he did, nervously though as he doesn’t like flying at all let along by himself. I took off south to Dawson Creek and when I arrived in town a mire hour and 15 minutes I got a text proclaiming he had landed and had a good flight.

While in Dawson this afternoon I managed to set up my bed frame as well as my complex desk. After doing that I decided I was too hot and needed something cold and thought about the newly open café 30 seconds from my apartment. I also was hoping they would have Internet as well but no such luck. So instead I sit here in the somewhat air condition café sipping a Strawberry Italian Soda typing this out in Word.

That is all for this update, hopefully next time I have an update I will be able to publish it as soon as I write it. But until then I will go back to my apartment and clean up and head back out to East Pine half hour a head of the Wiebes.
