4 more sleeps

Ahhhh...relaxing at its finest. Sitting back in a canoe, on a warm sunny day, surround by great people and a beer in hand. What more could you ask for?


A beer in both hands! Oh yeah!

Yep. This Saturday is our Canoe Trip, the 21st Annual that is. Every year we get family and friends together, grab some canoes, fill em with beer and food and head down the river for a relaxing day of joke telling, song singing, food eating and most importantly beer drinking. Depending on how hard you want to work, from our usual starting point you could spend anywhere’s from 5 hours to 8 or 9 on the river. Once out of the river we meet up at my Uncle’s place for an evening of partying, swimming, more eating, more drinking, washers tourney, and guitar playing with more singing. The day of the canoe trip is always an incredible event, I’ve got goosebumps just mentioning it now.

For me and a couple others who go down the river with us it’s not just a day of everything I mentioned above but it’s the day where we consume a shitload of alcohol and try to reach certain goals pertaining to alcohol consumption. Last year I had set a new record of 25 beers. This year’s beer goal for me is 30, but I won’t just be taking beer with me because I have recently found a new love of Spiced Rum + Coke. So we’ll see how the day turns out and hopefully I can achieve my goal.

I know it’s lame to be talking about how my I am going to have to drink this weekend but that’s all I could think to write about. Until tomorrow, this is R saying,

You stay classy Internet machine!
