Lifestyle change much?

Dad tells me that a lot of you are looking at these pictures and making travel arrangements...good! Come on out here and we'll do all the touristy stuff. For free! Let me know enough time in advance to get a least a couple of the days off too.

I thought I'd write a little bit about my lifestyle out here, because it's a pretty drastic change. First of all, many of you scoffed when I mentioned that I planned on cutting down on red meats, especially you, Jan. Well, since I got here, I've had about a 6 strips of bacon and 1 breakfast sausage. That's it. No joke. I realized this last night when I was laying down for bed (at 11:15....yikes) and then realized that it was something that I haven't even consciously been doing. My diet has consisted almost entirely of fish, fruit, vegetables, and carbs.

As for what I'm doing, I'm working. A lot. But when I'm not, I'm hiking, sitting here on the computer, going to the tourist traps, wandering around town, etc. In other words, I'm in pretty good shape and am actually waking and sleeping "normal" hours. Insanity! I feel a lot healthier too and am looking forward to coming home and drinking you all under the table while running circles around you. Mountain living....
