Whew ...
Awesome guys. I think it's so cool that you're doing EVERYTHING while traveling, even finding theatres, ;) ha ha. I miss you guys, and I get jealous when I see you all walking around in your shorts and sandles. Keep the pictures coming! They're awesome. Oh and Dustin, I have never in my life seen that much hair on you. It's amazing.

I've been enjoying your trip so far. Thanks for all the pics, it's a very beautiful place over there. I cant believe that the orangatangs just run around in public. That must have been really fun to witness. I know you guys are, but stay safe and live every minute to the fullest. Enjoy...until the next blog! Ashleigh in Kamloops!

hello boys!
hey guys, its been a while since i've written to any of you so i thought i'd take a moment to say hi. i really look forward to reading your blogs..its definately a surprise whenever they come and i love reading about all the crazy expereiences you've been having on your travels. i'm glad to hear you're all doing well...and it sounds like you're eating well, which is reassuring to know. i was worried about that you mcgills might not be able to find enough food to keep you full. and matt, i gotta say...i think they're rubbing off on you cuz you're starting to talk like a canadian now, going to theatres in all. ha ha. anyways, things are going well...for the most part over here in walla walla. kev, i gotta say you were right though about winter quarter being the pits...but we only have like 3 weeks left or something, so i'm hanging in there. in geography this week we're studying about southeast asia, so now after memorizing where all these places are for my quiz, i should be able to keep better track of where you guys are. ha ha. well i should go do some more homework...i know you guys are all jealous that you can't say that right?!? ha ha...ok, probably not. but ya'll take care. i miss you all so much. keep sending the emails, and i will continue to keep you all in my thoughts and prayers. love always, ashley

Just when I think your blogs can't get any better you prove me wrong!!! Actually, they have all been amazing. The Orangatangs(sp?) were soooo cool. An as best I can tell, they were loose and walking around you all sorta like deer do out here in western Wa.???? Is that right? I am just amazed and did you give the poor guy a candy bar???:? HE was in bad need! Were you looking down in to a pit at him? sorry for all the questoions but I am a curious one..... as Matthew will attest too! I also appreciate the great " buff muscles" shots as us Moms like to see your healthy and lice free:):):) That room where you watch your "Gone with the wind" stuff looks quite un plush but adequate huh?! Do you do alot of straw drawings to decide on the best picks for sleeping spots and who goes 1st,2nd, ect.. for the showers ? Na, I really don't wonder about that as you are a couple of layed back Canooks and a Flag maticuss Americola, ( my own originals:))So can hardly wait for the next chapter!!! YOu guys are living so many peoples dreams. In fact , I bet you are inspiring some others to save their penny's in the cookie jar. I am one of them. YEp, Matthew, I hope; you take Pops and me on a trip as you will be a pro by the time your done!! Never worry about you guys repeating stories. Its like three different views of the same spot. YOu all three give it your own perspective and it is very fun to read. Soooooo, don't stop!!!. YOu are all in my prayers often and it is such a comfort to know my God is your God and He see's you and is keeping great track of your journey. It makes me take luxuriously deep breaths after for the one millionth time I hand him back my brain where you all are concerned. No way you fully can understand untell you have your own little rug rats grown tall and trucking around the world. Gods blessing. Hey Dustin and Kevin, Give Matthew a big hug from his old Mom, THanks! Gods continued blessing and protection for you is my prayer, Bye Mom Cindy
