First Grouse of 2014

September 19-21

Grouse hunting

☆Boston Bar☆
-anisle fsr.  no grouse. They have been logging up the fsr so any habitats are now ruined.

☆ Kamloops ☆
- Jamieson fsr. Saw 6 grouse total. Shot 3 total. Lisa 1 Justin 2.
- O'Connor fsr. Saw nothing.  Farm land. Google Earth area to see if goes back into sub alpine.
***Google Earth to see what else is down Westsyde.***

☆100 Mile House☆
-Keene Rd. Saw 2 grouse total. Shot 1. Justin 1. Justin blew its head off.  Lots of roads all interconnected. 

☆Clinton☆
- ski hill loop. Saw covey of 5 birds. Shot 2 by Justin. Lesson for Lisa: ALWAYS take a gun when you have to go to the bathroom.

☆Tunkwa Lake Rd☆
- saw no grouse.

Overall, it was an okay weekend.  Lots of driving. Too much heat for the birds still. High 20s in late September = not good grouse hunting

The Creation

This past weekend Justin and I went grouse hunting. While driving home we were discussing how many times we went last year. Neither of us could remember so I decided that I would create hunting Cliffnotes posts. This way I can keep track of where we went, how many animals we saw and shot.
The post will start with a breakdown of the above.  Then if I have time, I will add a larger story to the post or create a new post later and link back to that specific cliffnotes post.
Tada! Smartness of the brain. It is rare, but it does happen.

Crazy Antics at the Gas Station

Greetings and salutations!

It has been awhile. A lot has happened in the past few months.  I got laid off from the tool store. (Assholes). Not getting into that. Anywho, I now have a job at the gas station.  I know the owners, worked for them before. Bottom line: they like me.
So I have been here now for just over a month and a half and the stupidity of people continues to amaze me. My best friend, Jenn, would verify that as she gets almost daily text messages from me commenting on the stupidness of others. So this morning while texting Jenn again, I came up with a brilliant idea of writing a book about the stupid people.  Only problem is I don't have enough material to write an entire book so I'm making a blog post instead. 

I now present to you, the stupidity of people at the gas station!

♤ Not turning the knob on the paper towel dispenser to get towel. They inform me it is out of paper.  I know it isn't as I just filled it. May need a sign mentioning the knob on the side...oh wait. There is one.

♧ Not locking the bathroom door.  There is a sign directly above the handle explaining how to lock the door. Yet people don't read it. Those are the people who have other people walk in on them.

♢ The door out is marked 'push'. Do not pull. If it is after 9pm, do not go to the other door and try pulling. That door is locked now and won't open either way. Fire regulations on all businesses require that the exit doors push out in case of an emergency. 

♤ Holding up the gas hose to get "the last of the gas out" after the pump has reached your selected pre-authorized amount does not actually do anything. There is three different valves between the pump and the nozzle that all shut when it is done. Holding up the hose does not do anything. 

♧ In your car, where the gas icon on your dash is there is a little arrow. That little arrow is pointing in the direction as to which side of the car your gas tank door is located on. 

There was more to this list, but as I started writing this a week ago I have misplaced the list. I will add a second addition to this post as more antics happen.
As for now, take care until next time. :-)
