anyway, we set off in the farm van, which although i am grateful for its use and that it held itself together the whole time, it's so loud. it seemingly has no muffler, and the whole thing creaks and flaps faithfully along.
on the way we stopped at Half Way hot springs, which were amazing! we didn't take our camera down with us: this is the only good photo i could find of it, THIS IS NOT ME OR MY PHOTO (and this person is obviously a prude):
the whole thing was really amazing, hippie made, nobody around, friggin' hot.
after that we drove a bunch, had a big bonfire with markus, went to some dumps, visited nelson, realized nelson is just another city where you can spend money, spent money, drove some more, got sick, visited a sweet glass blowing shop, read DUNE, and finally came home.
we have a bunch of tools, books, and other useful stuff that markus was getting rid of, and it was nice to visit with him, but i am happy to be back on the farm. i always dreamed the kootenays were really magical and special, but i found out they can ALSO be haunted and creepy.

hey! come visit me! or at least meet me in vancouver...
i knowwww, i really would've rather saved up and visited you instead but paul really wanted to do this and he only has a learner's licence. so i sort of had to go also.
anyway, if i get the chance to come to vancouver i'll let you know.
i'll be seeing you over christmas time though for sure!
whaaat!? f'real? when are you coming? to vermilion, or edmonton, or both?
how do you save up? i mean, i'm sort of confused about where you get money from. you haven't mentioned that on your blog or in your e-mails.
yea i'm coming to vermilion sometime around christmas to hang out and meet justin. probably earlier like the 15th or something. let me know when you will be available for sure and i will plan around that. we'll also spend a bit of time in calgary probably packing up the rest of our stuff that in storage there.
i won't be making any money this winter. we made some money working at the salmon run that i posted about earlier. that money is what we will be living on until the summer.
i will write more about money in an email.
