The River

The first river trip of the season was this past Saturday.

Jaskie attempted to make this a small group but failed. 11 people ended up going: me, Jaskie, Chris (Tree), Emily, Meaghan, Brad, Lilly (Brads friend), David, Hillary, Jarrod, Carl, and Nyomi.

Good times were had, beers were drunk, song here attempted to be sung; Piano man went well but we decided Build Me Up Buttercup was not the same without Parker.

One big thing went wrong however, Jarrod made the mistake of trusting Nyomi with his keys. Apparently, Nyomi had zipper pockets on the pants she was wearing on the river, so she and Jarrod thought it was a safe place to keep their keys. Well, Nyomi's story is her tube flipped over and her pants fell off... I personally think there has to be more to it... anyways, she immediately started looking for the pants but did not tell the rest of us until 20 minutes later. Needless to say the pants and keys were never found.

The river was really slow that day and it took us 6 1/2 hours to make the trip, we reached the cars at 5:30. Now I was not there for this, but apparently everyone else who was involved in the key debacle did not get home till after 8:30.

Moral of this story: Don't trust Nyomi to be able to keep her pants on ;)

Brad's Housewarming Party

Last night was the housewarming party for Brads new place.

About 2 weeks ago, Brad made the mistake of telling us that his and Meaghan's safe word was "banana's. I thought it was funny at the time and had not thought of it sense. Jaskie however, kept it in his mind and came up with a wonderful idea; to call everyone Brad was inviting and tell them to bring a bundle of banana's as a housewarming gift. Lilly was the one who added the handcuffs.

And of course Fatty, the alcoholic dog with good peripheral vision, was also there. Fatty was "attacking" anyone with a beer in reach. Notice in this picture he is looking at the beer with his creepy looking fish eyes.





Here are some more photos of Fatty's reign of terror:
