Runnin on- runnin into the sun but I'm runnin behind

I feel like I've been running on empty for the last few weeks, so it was really nice to take it back a notch or two this weekend and relax a little. Thursday night I went to the Taste of MN for the REO Speedwagon concert. I realized that I may be the only person under 40 who likes them, but I'm alright with that. You can't beat a good power ballad. Got to enjoy many things that I have missed for ages- beautiful summer nights, free concerts, ferris wheel rides, root beer floats, and fireworks!

Friday morning we headed down to the St. Croix river to camp on one of the islands- spent all day basking in the sunshine, playing frisbee and oddly enough, having cheez wiz fights (not recommended). As evening set in, we all hopped aboard a couple boats and headed up to stillwater for the most amazing fireworks display I have ever seen. Back at the island, we all hung out, grilled, sang songs around the campfire and played electronic catch-phrase. :)

Headed home friday morning with about 2 hours of dreadful sleep under our belts, spent a lazy afternoon sleeping and then went for my very first drive-in movie! It was amazing. Apparently I've been missing out.

All in all it was an amazing weekend! Now that I'm psuedo-rested, it's back to the grindstone! Off to Wichita tomorrow for my 3rd assessment trip. Whoop whoop! ;)
