The Unveil and a Ryan Update

Ryan just got back last night, so now I can post pictures of our furnished house! More about Ryan after the pictures. Enjoy!









I love this house! It's fun to have lots of new things, and the hardwood floors are awesome.

So I'll try to sum up what Ryan's been up to. He's working 2 weeks on then gets 1 week off, and he'll be doing that until the end of August we think. At that time he might be able to take a few weeks off, then start a new job. He is basically the supervisor for the camp, so he's getting great experience. He has two "fieldies" (field assistants) working for him and he's getting along really well with them. Last week one of the machines fell on one of them, so Ryan had lots of paperwork to fill out for a few days. Everyone was really happy with how he dealt with the situation, so seems like he'll have some good references for the future. His days are usually about 10 hours at the work site, then he has dinner, then does another hour or two of data entry and reports in the evening.

That's all for now. We don't have any concrete plans for the week, but we will probably try to do a few day trips when Justin gets back from Canada on Friday. It's a long weekend here coming up (Queen's Birthday...our May 24 holiday) so Monday is a holiday.
