Kayaking

This weekend was great! We got to go kayaking, and it was a blast! Steph had a great time too, which gives me hope that we might own kayaks someday. I think there are some things here that you just can't experience without a kayak. For example, I have never gotten so close to an eagle, or been able to listen to a few of them have a conversation. This deer was on an island about the size of the Cottonwood Mall. . . how did it get there? I hate to sound sentimental, but the only thing that would have made it better is if Dad, Mike, Mark, and Dave were here to see it with me. I hope we can all come up here together sometime.

Bears and Celebs

That's right! We had our first bear sighting today! It was awesome! It was a pretty big black bear and it came right down onto our stairs and tried to chew open our trash can. After about 20 minutes of trying it decided to give up, much to the dismay of the hundred-or-so people that had come to watch it. As you can see from the picture I was able to get pretty close without it even noticing me.


When we got back to work there was a big ole group of people in the store and they were ready to buy. The guy walked in and handed me his card and then told his group of about 20 to get some stuff. That alone was pretty exciting. Then I saw his wife. It was Jamie Gurtz. You may remember her from Twister (the therapist fiancee of Bill Paxton), or from the sitcom Still Standing, or if those don't ring any bells she was Jerry Seinfeld's girlfriend that couldn't spare a square for Elaine. She was super nice and she even took a picture with some of our girls. She loved our store. In the end they spent about 800 dollars which is the biggest sale we have ever had here. It was a fun day!

Take A Hike





I can't believe that I'm saying this, but we have been so lucky with weather! Every day off that we have had has been sunny! Apparentely last year was like the worst summer in a while and people are saying that we are due for a good one. So far so good. Steph and I took advantage of the weather by going for a hike. You all probably get sick of me saying this but it is so beautiful here! Mom told me that Grandpa Garner said that he couldn't imagine anywhere being more beautiful than this. I agree.
Steph and I have decided that it is high time that we go on a cruise, and you're all invited! We found a SWEET deal to the eastern carribean that goes December 16th-the 23rd and only costs $450! This is seriously a great deal! Here is the link so that you can all get details. Let us know what you think. https://www.ovscruise.com/cruises/cruisedetail.jsp?cobrand=17664&pid=2&langrecno=1&sessionid=7C2EE1FD7347836252EB8E154EF3D7A3.tomcat&javascript=&jsessionid=7C2EE1FD7347836252EB8E154EF3D7A3.tomcat×tamp=20070603175651&customerid=gpWF18hnOmD5dtDcl6Z3pw%3D%3D&recno=7280457&specialtype=2&isgalileo=true&clr=3
