9.7.11


It was a organic, blah, blah, blah, a super healthy pig, ha. Was delicious.




Team Under The Bus (They won best costume).

     The weather here is starting to remind me of Florida, it is getting hot man. I thought it was supposed to be cold and rainy up here, ha, all I see is clear blue skies and sunshine. I checked some websites regarding this heat and supposedly it is the hottest week of the entire year.

     I had made plans today to head down to "Pacific Spirit Regional Park, which comprises 763 hectares of forest and foreshore immediately west of Vancouver. The park's forests stretch across Point Grey separating the city from the University of British Columbia. Its thin foreshore wraps around the tip of the peninsula and touches the Fraser River, the Strait of Georgia and Burrard Inlet. The park's closeness to both the university and the city entices visitors to reach it by foot, bus or bike."

     One of my favorite part of todays trip was finding out that there were blackberries growing in the sides of the trail I was walking today. At first I was curious as to what the berries were (poisonous or not), but I was super hungry so I said hell with it. Thank goodness they were blackberries! I ended up staying on this trail as long as I could eating all the berries I could find. I must have ate around 3 pounds of blackberries today... My hands were stained purple, true passion...

     I tried making my way through a series of trails to ultimately end up at the beach but was turned away by what a park ranger told me was a brush fire (starting from a campfire). Helicopters, firetrucks the whole nine yards were coming in to put out this fire. By this time I was quite a ways away from were I had locked up my bike (1 hours walk) so I headed back to get my ride and head on home.

     I did some reading on dairy, and sent a few emails out to local farmers seeing if I could purchase part ownership on a cow to receive raw, pasture-raised, grass-fed, full fat milk. My roommate Dan and I also purchased a quarter of a cow (meat) which will be here 9.25.11, were going to go pick up a 5 liter deep freezer to store all of our meat! I am so excited!

     So were do I stand with dairy? I found this article a while ago and I feel the same way.

Cheers,
