Busy Busy

Sorry I have been missing for the last few days. My life is crazy.. In a good way. But still crazy.

Wednesday was spent driving all day long to get to New Mexico, where I was doing a workshop with my mom. It was a long drive.. 7 hours. We finally got to Farmington, New Mexico and got food to go and hit the hot tub. Thursday morning began early with the workshop. It went well. I felt like I really helped a lot. We drove home straight after the workshop and stopped in Price for dinner. We went to this great little drive in called Sherald's. Mm it was delicious! We got home around 9, and I had approximately 12 hours home until my next trip. The next trip was a "Girl's Trip" to Cedar City to see the play "Les Miserables", one of the best plays ever. I was a little hesitant before we left, but it was fun. We a delicious Hawaiian dinner and sat in the hot tub for a couple hours. Tomorrow (Saturday) morning we will drive the 4.5 hours back.. Awesome.

California Day 5

Things I am tired of:
1. My dad's music
2. My dad's music
3. My dad's music
4. Only eating one meal a day
5. My dad's music

Yesterday we listened to my dad's ipod the ENTIRE drive from Lone Pine to LA (4.5 hours). I would try to play a song or two from ipod.. Nope. Shot down.
And today we are driving from Six Flags to the airport. Guess what we are listening to? Oldies. Only Oldies. Don't get me wrong, I do like oldies.. But they get old. (See what I did there? ;)

And it doesn't help I haven't eaten in 24+ hours. (I always get cranky when I am hungry.)

We ran around the park today with no food in our system. (We apparently missed breakfast)
We stopped for one second for a coke. And no food. I NEED FOOD. I NEED TO BE FED! (Just a warning)

Ok. I am back. And fed. So I much more pleasant, I promise. :)
Well, we made it to Salt Lake. Driving back to Orem as I type.
What a good vacation I had with my dad!

Six Flags wore me out, but it was a lot of fun. There were three new rides that I hadn't ridden before. I got a spiffy new pink Superman cape, which I won beating my dad in a water squirter game.
Total rides: 24
   yea buddy.
Not really looking forward to real life though its coming whether I am ready or not. Boo.
Oh well. I get to see my dog and my brother and my mommy and my sister. I love them.

Also, as my quote is an interesting picture and quote.

California.. Day 4 (Last full day)

Well today was the last day in Lone Pine. (Last full day in California)

Right now we are headed to Valencia, California. (Where Six Flags Magic Mountain is located)

Today was a good last day in Lone Pine. We got to sleep in (yay!). After a shower, we headed out to the fair in the park and I got some jewelry and I bought my dad and I some "Tropical Shaved Ice". Yummy.

We watched the parade, which was rather uneventful.

Then we made a drive out to the Alabama Hills. Climbed around, took some pictures.. It was a good time.

We had a lunch at a restaurant where my dad used to work when he was in high school.
We left Lone Pine shortly after that and have been on the road ever since! (4 and 1/2 hours is a long drive)

California.. Day 3

Guess where I am right now? Never mind, you won't guess, so I'll just tell you.
I AM ON THE SET OF A MOVIE!!!
It is about 10 pm and I am sitting in the famous dirt of the Alabama Hills, just outside of Lone Pine, California.
  The movie is called Morgana, and even when its released you probably won't hear about it.
  It is so cool. Just being on the set is awesome. There is so much that goes into a movie that I don't even think about!
  This morning was an early one. We started the day right on one of Chris' tours of the 'Lone Ranger'. We got to go to famous sites where it was filmed, including the new one they are making with Johnny Depp!
  After the tour, my dad and I drove to Indepence, California where we visited Manzanar (a camp where the US put the Japanese after World War II began. It was really interesting and sad.
  We made it back just in time for a really cool stunt panel at the museum. Two stunt men talked about their days of stunting, especially back with the old Westerns. The things they did with no safety was amazing!! I decided I am going to write a short story about stunt men, or a specific stunt man.
  A big policy change was made with the Mormon church today. The age for missions were changed. Previously it was boys: 19 girls: 21. Now it is boys: 18 girls: 19!! Whoa. This was a really big deal.
  I facetimed Brooke and talked to Richie on the phone for a bit and then after dinner my dad headed out here!
Well, we got to watch them film and it was AMAZING! It was so freaking cool :)
They are probably gonna start filming soon and I pretty dang excited.

In other news, REAL (my soccer team) beat LA Galaxy 2:1 tonight :) OLAY OLAY OLAY REAL SALT LAKE!
