August Update!!!

Man oh man!

I’ve been meaning to update you for days now, but It’s been psychotic to say the least…okay where to start?

First off, my food is done!  I am continuing with the dehydrating and vacuum-sealing in case I miscalculated how much food I’ll actually need.  That way i’ll have plenty, and if I don’t use it well, you now know where to go if the apocalypse actually happens….

That by far is the biggest to-do I could’ve checked off.  it’s comforting to know the bare minimum for food I need is taken care of.  now I turn my attention to getting ready for my Visa appointment at the US Consulate in Vancouver.  My appointment is September 11.  After that i can apply for my re-entry permit so I can come back home after the hike is done, and of course I need the actual permit.  Making progress!

The quiz night on August 11 was such a success…we’re hosting another one.  September 22 at Thornhill pub.  It’s $10.00 per person, there’s two different times; one for the early crowd at 7pm, then again for the rowdies at 9:00pm.  we’ll have door prizes, food and drink specials, all to support my PCT hike.

big shout out to everyone who’s been supporting me; aside from my morning wavers, wanted to also say big thanks to my sponsors so far: TCSI Consulting, Silvertip Promotions and Keith Vandenbroek of H.E.L.O.  To everyone who bought shirts and hoodies-THANK YOU!!!!

With my itinerary being complete, i’ve forecasted a return to Canada for September 18th…..which means I’m about 8 months from leaving….OMG!!!!
