And We Did Research

Well this last week Brigham was in town so what did we do? Went to the lake and the pool and had a productive week.  Brig's purpose for the trip was to switch cars for a few weeks while he is doing his clinical down in AZ, to save money on gas.  I will have his tundra, and will be fully benefiting from its ability to tow a boat and go camping, should be a good time.  Off the top of my head i can't think of any great stories from the week, but regardless it was a solid week here in Provo.  

A RIVER RUNS THROUGH IT

So friday night we headed east to the colorado boarder to go whitewater rafting.  So of course i had to make some new purchases to prepare me for this adventure. So i went to costco and bought myself a sleeping bag and its sick!!!! Then i was at smith's, a grocery store right, and found the sweetest folding camping chair!!! it has a shade thing that comes up from the back LEGIT!!!! We arrived friday night about 11 most the crew was already there. we set up camp and went to sleep. The next moring had a egg and bacon bagle with melted pepper jack cheese, so good. we drove "shuttle" took all the cars to the pull out spot then headed back and dropped in. we floated about an hour before hitting our first rapid "little Delores" which our rookie crew did ok on.  Next was "funnel" and we hit it perfect totally crushed the waves. next was "skull" a class 4 rapid so it was game time. being in the front for this one instead of sitting up me and my buddy taylor, who was the leader of the left side, had to lay down on the edge so we could put more weight on the nose.  we went throught "skull" like champions i was completely under water for a while but still attached to the boat it was so awsome. after the rapids we floated with all the boats together and ate lunch and talked about the victory over the river. another highlight was seeing an bald eagle in a tree. I wish i had more pictures i ordered a waterproof camera and paid for speedy delivery but it didn't come in time so i didn't get to take great actions, heat of the moment, shots. but it will be here tomorrow and we are having and underwater photoshoot, but not like the one in highschool (if you don't know, you'll never know) well off to bed. 

BOOM! BOOM! POW! ENOUGH!

All right! I admit it! I like the Black Eyed Peas. I like it when I'm out dancing and I hear the catchy hooks of Will I. Am. I mean how can we forget songs such as Let's Get Retarded, Pump It, and My Humps. And I was big fan of Boom Boom Pow, but that's now the sound it makes as the radio stations beat us over the head with this song. I turned to three different radio stations today in LA and all three were playing this song. Looks like I'm either going to have to stop listening to the radio or end up hating this song. Why do they gotta buzz kill it. Oh well . . . I'm sure there are more important things to worry about. HA!

Ladies and Gentlemen of the Blogger Nation. I am pleased to inform you that I have purchased a new digital camera that will arrive this week.  Be prepared for a summer of updates from your boy Samuel Levi Woods. It is water proof to 33ft so you will get even the wet and wild shots. Love you all

LAS PALOMAS TRIATHLON

Just wanted to post a few pics and I'll try and write a little bit about the weekend, but wanted to get these up. It was a lot of fun might have a new hobby.

Windows Of Opportunity

Hey oh!!!! Ok so Brigham has been up in Utah since last sunday staying with me.  We've had some laughs some tears and laughs.  We didn't do much at the beginnin of the week due to me being on the bench with the stomach flu.  On thursday we went and played some basket ball with David Jackson one of the Presidents (Dad's) former assistants.  Basketball was a good time, the gym was freezing and i had to be on the Skins team! I hadn't trimmed the love rug for a while so you can imagine.  It was fun but I coulnd't buy a bucket.

Ok on to the most eventful day of the week Saturday is a special day. ... we started the day off by going shooting with Glen and Sarah.  We went out to the west side of the lake a safe distance from civilization.  We had 3-12 gauges, a 20 gauge, 2- 22's, a 44 magnum revolver, a over under 12 gauge, and an ol trusty winchester 30-30 i like to call old Love, named after Granny of course.  We shot guns for about and hour or two, and i'm glad to report no one got hurt, we were just a little cold.  Sarah is a pretty good shot.  Thanks Glen for taking us.

On the the nights festivities.  I was supposed to work at 5pm but when i got to work there was a scheduling conflict so I had the option to go or stay.  I was already a little chapped with a few of the people working that night so I decided to take my ticket to the BYU Wake Forest game and leave.  Me, Brigham, and Scurr all went to the basketball game.  After getting there and checking imediate surroundings, you know closest exits, biggest male threats, and attractive members of the female gender we watched a great basketball game.  Brigham had spotted something to his liking at our 4 o clock. so once the game was over he headed right over to have a chat.  Long story short, the window of opportunity was given for Brig and I to be twins but it didn't stop there at all.  I am currently attending UCLA Dental living in LA in Brigs old apartment while Brig truthfully is attending USC and living in Orange County because he doesn't have to be on campus as much as me seeing as how i'm a first year student.  This story was never broken the whole night, we had a few close calls though.  Our friend Scurr got in on the action when his plans to go play Pro Soccer in the Spanish league of Europe were ruined with a torn ACL a  year and a half ago.  Needless to say we scammed the girls ages 29,29, and 26 from 8pm till about 1 in the morning. God Bless great friends.
