This is Canyon Lodge’s big opening day. I had been looking forward to being part of it: going to work (not training), serving food, and talking to people from all over the country and world. However, we found out yesterday afternoon that Hilary doesn’t start until Sunday and that I don’t start until tomorrow evening. The mild disappointment of missing opening day was quickly replaced by excitement at the prospect of getting to go on our first backpacking trip. If everything goes according to plan, we will hike to and camp at Ribbon Lake on the other side of the canyon.
*I’ve made several friends from Michigan who all refer to soda as “pop,” which entertains me. I am also very amused when they point out where in Michigan they live using their hand (because most of Michigan resembles a mitten). I also take great pleasure in their pronunciation of “Oregon” as “or-uh-gone.”

I miss Sugar Bear. Hilary. Hilary is Sugar Bear.
