Training Log Archive: Yukon King

wandering around Nymph Falls w/ the G-dog while D ran about looking for controls, scouted picnic area, looked at the pretty step-wise falls, got stomped by dogs, it was fun.
Tuna-pea-whole wheat pasta was loved by me but not D, he ate goat cheese instead.

over to the Island after racing down to South Surrey to get G's saucy lil life-jacket, she looks cute!!! Stopped at Rathtrevor Park to walk her before going to the Skylite Motel to check in, less than a kilometer of fun beach-walking, but I was wiped.
Really yummy organic lamp chorizo w/ chopped tomatoes & a box of Annie's Organic White Cheddar Shells (that means, kraft-mac, but white & virtuous...) Yum!!! quick and easy!

well, I didnt walk very far, but G-dog ran about 3 kilometers! Met a dude from grad school out of the blue walking his dog Sascha, so G got some off-leash time running after alpha-female Sascha & her stick while Will & I caught up on the last eleven years...
prepping for trip to Island tomorrow...thai tofu for dinner.

have to chop the plumeria back to one-foot sticks before we leave for vacation so they can have quiet time to think things over, dunno what thing to use as they are rather big & my garden shears are way too small. Butcher's knife? I think Dennis will have to do it cuz I am not strong enuf.
Downtown on train for banking & sushi w/ Derek this AM.
White-trash origins reign today, smothered chicken, I can detect some common ancestors of the Colonel's "secret recipe" (except of course, the chicken gets "smothered" with milk after it gets fried, & then baked). I can tell you there's paprika, pepper, salt, & rosemary in it...did I ever mention my daddy grew up in a sod-roof shack w/ a rain-barrel for water? I'm sure I did...

C • guess what - living in a sod-r... 2

gah....food-poisoning...but doglet still needed walkies, so out we went (during an "interlude") around the block....gah...dumb ol' restaurants. It was fun to see derek, though.

did afternoon walk in aftermath of misty rain, evening walk as well, each about 1km. had fun w/ Alf (shopping & dimsum) in morning but then felt like cr*p most of afternoon & evening, felt like like lying flat w/ eyes closed, what IS that!? so feeble...

coffee plant getting a bath & groom today...

wandered randomly around the neighborhood mostly NW of Mayfair to practice who-gets-to-choose the route, (mostly) me as it turns out. Thus, I am the leader of the pack, so I get to pick up all the dog toys off the livingroom floor and vacuum up all the Cute-Blonde dog fluff off the (luckily sorta blonde) carpet.
Met chatty lady w/ off-leash boor-dog who was smart enuf (lady not dog) not to try telling me more stuff about how to raise my dog.
tofu, green beans, & a few other organic things w/ Dennis' yummy hoisin-based stirfry sauce. Chilled grapes, tomatoes...now I'm gonna drink some fairtrade darjeeling & rejoice in the sun. Nice breeze. Coffee tree is so happy!

went to Deas Slough to canoe had a great time! first we had quiche & blueberries and visited w/ another shiba inu, then we walked down to Fisher's Field (1.6 km RT, got a coke down there, yum) to see the old car rally (my favorite was a um... red car, dang...) & back, then D put the canoe together & we paddled for 2 hours up past the marina & down an Amazon-jungle-like tributary & back, met Keith & had our BBQ, got home around 8:45pm, just a touch too much of sun, I think, despite a mighty cute sunhat & SPF 24 on nose.
