  I know I said I'd edit the post last time too fill in the gaps, but it's already been 2 days now, so I might as well start with a brand new post.
Anyhow, Sunday proved quite eventful too! Even though we had just been planning on packing out and heading home, Kyle suggested, and I was happy to agree, to go out on the lake again! This time we got in from Superior (the city, not the lake... but it was still on Lake Superior. Confused yet? :P). Then we cruised up to near Two Harbors where Sig climbed out onto some rocks and ran up to a knitting shop she wanted to go to. Kyle and I enjoyed a peaceful hour of waiting on the water and hanging out, while Sig was deciding what to buy. Then I got to drive most of the way back, handing control over to Kyle to navigate the Duluth harbor and go under the famous lift bridge.
After getting back out of the lake and were about to call our adventure to a close, a most unfortunate gust of wind tore the cover off of the boat and tossed it into the highway. About 15 minutes later we were finally able to get back and retrieve it, though most of the buttons were destroyed by the force with which they were ripped off. Hopefully it won't be too much of an ordeal for them to get it fixed back up. After this final adventure, we were all pretty much ready to go home. Fortunately for me, home was only 15 minutes and a stop at Subway away (though Sig & Kyle had another couple hours to go) ^_^ Skipping on to yesterday, we started doing vegetation surveys at work.
They're actually really fun, even though the others seem to hate them :P Lots of counting, identifying and measuring of plants around grouse drumming logs. The only downside to the work is having to stay in one place for a long time, allowing the bugs to keep gathering around me in thicker and thicker swarms. I'm doing 10 hour days now so I can get Fridays off, so that should finally allow me to catch some good ol' wrestling action on Thursday nights, and make my trips home on the weekends more worthwhile. After work I went into town to get my oil changed... I'm way overdue. None of the places in town were open though except WalMart, and they were backed up past closing time so they wouldn't take me.
I guess I'll have to do one more 200 mile trip on the same old oil and change it this weekend with my dad, since I wont have any time to get it changed tomorrow, and I leave for home on Thursday. Oh yeah... then there's still the issue with the broken headlight. Shit :P Ok, that's all I got for now. oot!
