Yakima Nation

I am back in Twisp, Wa working for the Yakima Nation Fisheries. I wasn't really looking forward to coming back, but now that i am here, i am ok with it. My Truck is once again sitting at the mechanic, I think it has spent more time at the mechanic than it has on the road. I will be investing in a rebuilt transmission soon. I had planned on working only until just before Thanksgiving, but due to broken down circumstances i will be working towards a running vehicle until the season ends at Christmas time. Hopefully i will have enough $$ to leave the country come January. I am thinking Egypt. I have a friend who lives there and she has invited me to come travel Kenya and Ethiopia with her. Afterwards i will probably come back here to Twisp and work with the Washington Fish and Game again. Maybe replace the motor in my truck?
Today after sitting at the office, doing nothing for two hours. I live downstairs in the office, so i went down and washed the dishes. The whole crew went down to Wells Dam to trap Coho. You sit up on a chair above the fish ladder and watch water flow by, waiting for a Coho to swim past, if it does you quickly hit a button that opens a gate and traps the Coho. It is about as exciting as watching the toilet flush. When not sitting up on the chair, you sit in a lawn chair below. I spent most of the day asleep in the lawn chair dreaming about Egypt.
I sold my camera to a friend of mine, so until i get a new one my blog will be photo-less.
