Working

Spent Monday through Friday trimming trees since we "missed the last week of work". David showed up on Thursday so our mode of transportation was gone for this weekend. Saturday I really didn't do much of anything, practiced playing the guitar which is a new thing I am starting to learn over here. I have a lot of partial songs that I can play. I'm working on being able to play the song Blackbird by the Beatles all the way through now.

Today we went to church in Gore which is about an hours drive away to the North. It reminded me a lot of Journey with the large stage in front with the full band and a lot of singing which I love. The message was pretty good too. We stopped at McDonalds for lunch on the way home since they are the only place in Southlands it seems that has free internet and even they limit the amount of data you can download (50mb). Then came back to do a few chores around the house. I took off around 5pm on a 4wheeler to fish a small creek we drive over every time we go to town. There were some big fish but the water was very murky brown, i'm guessing from the dairy farm upstream, that it was hard to spot them. I ended up only catching one brown trout around 20" in two hours, but it was nice to get away from the house.

Back to work tomorrow for what sounds to be another Monday-Friday week. Lots of trees to trim...
