Somekind of Saturday!

AM - Visit Jim, he meets Omar for the first time. Omar likes Jim's house (who wouldn't? This was taken last year, snow's all gone there now) it's spectacular inside and out. He just returned from a hike/paragliding job in BC. We discussed "the circuit" as Jim knows many celebs in it. Aron Ralston is doing alright; lost an arm, made a million.

NOON - Meet up with the Gick family and headed to Fulton's http://www.fultons.ca/. Wonderful afternoon!! This family is so easy to travel with. Mrs. Gick just booked her trip to Rome and wants me to go to Peru with her next...Something to think about.

PM - Evening "Frog Watch" Walk. Little Ray http://www.raysreptiles.com/ lead us on a walk of the forests and swamps surrounding the zoo. Boo's neice works for Ray so she gave Lil' Grunt and I an escort in. We were there to check out several different species of salamanders, toads and frogs as they begin to "pop" out for the spring.

LATE PM - Skunked on our outting with Ray, The GANG (thank friggin God I have these people as my friends, they are, without a doubt the funnest people going - ALWAYS up for an adventure - not to mention that "T" cooks like a madman and just inherited the biggest fatest Q known to mankind)...Anyhoo, we did a local trail, it was SURREAL. The moonlight, the stars, I felt as thought I'd walked out of a scene from "BIG FISH". "A" was screaming like an idiot. We saw a leech and heard the spring peepers, but the adventure itself was what it was all about.

LATE LATE PM - Little grunt and I have been engaging in game of Spongebob Square Pants MONOPOLY. The little tycoon already owns most prime real estate and shrewdly negotiated several bank loans which have all been paid back.
