St. George

It looks like we will be staying awhile this time. Sloan and Johnny Bo have bolth began a new school year. Sloan started at Dixie College a few weeks ago and is doing really good. She is planing on being an RN. I think its a good plan. We could use the money and benefits and it wouldnt hurt to have a nurse in the house to take care of my sorry ass. Boden started his first year of preschool and is also doing really well. Last month he had his Christmas program and unlike his daddy he stole the show. He was the best one by far. He spoke and sang clearly with a big happy smile on his face. Jett doesnt like his big bro leaving and is very excited to pick him up but he gets his mama to his self for a few hours a day so they get to hang out and he is happy. So I guess we will be staying in St George for a while. We have been looking at houses and hope to buy one soon. I am sick of it being cold and cant wait for spring so we can start backpacking and camping every weekend.

Three Amigos- Bodie , Jettster & Me

I always kind of hoped my own kids would one day watch the three amigos with me. I did not expect them to like it as much, treat it with as much respect and reverence or memorize every single line like me and Tash did. Bodie boy picked it the other night to watch and him Jett have not stoped since. They have watched it 4 times in the last two days and bolth of them are all ready doing the amigo salute. I have not really watched the show for years but with those two little bugers getting into I have to say I'am once again loving it.

Bodie Jett & Santa

Nice system we have

Holy shit. What kind of completly twisted society do we live in where we give a guy ( Michael Vick) 23 months in prision for dog fights while we have child molesters and rapists getting two months or a couple years of probation. I never have liked Vick, always thought he was a punk. I think what he did was messed up and he should have to pay for it. Give him a whole shitl load of communtiy service pickin up dog shit , give him fines big enough that would actually sting somebody with his kind of money but good hell two years in prison. Bullshit! You probably think I dont like dogs, I do. I dont give a damn if you do nt believe me. What I dont like is people who put any freakin cat or dog above human life. People who mess with children should be tortured and put to death. Instead they get a slap on the hand and live amongst us. The people that let this happen and helped this happen make me sick. Fight for something worth fighting for. For example : The poor freakin volunteer millitary personel who are rotting in in millitary briggs for taking some harmless pics of low life scum bags who belong to a group of people that want every single one of us dead. They torture our troops , they cut our heads off and post them for us to see and we do a little harmless hasing which from what they showed was was less offensive than what happens at boot camps and and colleges every freakin day. The entire counrty should have called bullshit on all of these charges and let them free . Can you say I am wrong?

Ashland Mt

Ashland Montana Fantasy Camp

We will be paying for that little trip off for some time to come. It was an experience ......and for some reason, I would do it again. Have any of you ever been on highway 212 through the Crow and Cheynne indian reservation's? Probably not. I would bet that most of you will never find a reason to do it in your life either. But , Sloan , Johnny Bo , Myself and the Jettster went down that road and lived on it. We worked hard , played hard and even made some pretty cool friend's. Although not anything about the area was spactaular or even all that unique it was a beautiful place. Sloan found a park beside the Tounge River that belonged to the Saint Labre Res School that for the 8 week's that we were there was our own private sanctuary. We watched movie's and read every night huddled on Sloan and my bed, slash dinner table, slash trampoline. That is just a few thing's that that 5 by 5 area was used for. We took long drives down dirt road's through counrty that was packed with Antelope and White Tail deer. We drove to laundry matt's North , South , West and East of Ashland every Saturday to do our laundry for the week. The closest one was 45 miles away. It did teach us that we could conserve a hell of a lot of water by wearing a pair of pant's more than once and using the same towel for the week was not that big of deal. We also learned from living with no microwave that no matter what the hell the food is, with out question 100% better cooked on a stove. We stood where Custor and his men foolishly died on the Little Big Horn Battlefield. We stood on top of Bear Tooth Pass at almost 1200 feet as the sun was falling over the mountain's to the west. We tried like hell to find a bear. Didn't, but we did see a pretty good portion of of the animal life that resides in the area. We lived in Ashland............

I wrote this on the inside of a magizine one night in the trailer while I was waiting for Sloan to get the boy's to sleep. She found it and it and it made her sad. She just read it wrong.

Livin in Ashland

Still in Luxuroy

Still to comfortable

Still not satisfied

Still not enough.

Looking forward to a

solo trip in the desert.

I hate work but it

does make me feel better.

Figure a way to wander

with my pack and get paid

................and I got it made.
