With all of my newfound free time I have been spending a surprising amount of time outside, considering my Northern Minnesota tendencies to hate the heat. Yes, to us northerners 70 degrees is warm. I am starting to get used to the heat and I just might enjoy it a little. (Don't tell my mom.) I think even my pasty white Norwegian skin is getting used to sunny weather. This year it is what I like to consider a golden brown. Of course this is all my opinion. But one thing is for certain, I have not turned in the red lobster screaming from the boiling pot of water like I usually do. Crap, now I've jinxed myself, as the summer is only half over. Plenty of time for a real good summertime sunburn complete with sheets of peeling skin. Anywho, what have I been doing with my time you ask? My new hangout is The Great Plains Nature Center. You Wichita folks are gonna have to trust me when I say this place is better than Food N Fuel, the coolest hangout in Duluth. O.K., so I was in high school, but it was wicked hip back in the day.
This is the elusive cactus that David did not believe to exist. Ha, I showed him!
A big old turtle just chillin' in the grass. Note: slime on back is same color as licorice poops.

When we were in Wichita, Andy and I would go to the nature center to feed the fish and turtles. Those guys are CRAZY!!! And it was cheap entertainment. We could get, like, four bags of the really cheap bread for one dollar or something. Katie and I also used to go jogging there back in the day...when I was into being healthy. It's a great place.
