The Adventures in Utah Series Continues...
So when I got my rental car, I forget all the Utah radio stations that I programmed the last time I was here so I just go through and select a bunch. What's weird is two stations are repeated which I just don't understand. As far as I know, everyone has access to the same frequencies I do. Why does a radio station broadcast on two frequencies??? Anyways, cuz I'm zipping through trying to add them to the presets, sometimes I add the same station on two presets. Anyways, I couldn't find a station quickly enough so I just picked one at random that was clear before I parked the car. When we went to eat, one of the ladies I work with was in my car and she says, "I see you picked one of the only good radio stations that we have." I thought, hmm, thanks. Later on when I was driving alone, I cranked it up and it was a total hip hop/R&B station. Ha ha. Not that I don't like that music or anything, but I just don't think people see me as being a fan of that type of music. Can you just imagine me cruising and listening to Beyonce? Ha ha! Well, someone does now, ha ha.
Today after work, I went to Antelope Island again. This time I had my digital camera and a little more time so me and my coworker planned on climbing the tallest peak of Antelope Island. It didn't look that hard. I was so wrong! It didn't look big because Antelope Island is huge and it just didn't look big from that far away. It's kind of like when you're in Vegas and you see the Stratosphere, and you think you can just walk there really quickly even though you're a mile away, but it's soooo big that it looks close even though it's far. That is how I describe Frary Peak of Antelope Island. Yeah, I know what you're thinking. Anyways, the rules of the island say that trails close after 8pm. If you're on the trail still after 8, you can get cited. So we got there at 5pm. I thought we could just run up there quick and take some cool photos and then come back in plenty of time. Well, after walking for about 45 minutes, the peak was still the same size. After an hour and a half, it was still pretty much the same size. Anyways, we almost made it to the top, but it got pretty rocky and precarious which was also something we didn't expect. I got some awesome photos though. Then while we were very extremely near and close to the top, I notice the sun is about to go down and we have about 30 minutes to get back. So it took me like two and a half hours to get up the hill and I plan to get back in 30 minutes? Yes. So I just bolt down the mountain. Sometimes I'm in control and other times just flailing completely out of control. All the while, I'm concerned that I haven't actually ran a long distance in quite a long time AND I'm wearing Vans so I feel like the bottom of my feet are being constantly banged by hammers. Anyways, we got back in 50 minutes and no ticket, woohoo! The pictures will be online in a few days. Anyways, I'm way sore now. I can only move my feet in one direction. Like I can press down on a pedal, but I have to lift my leg to get it off the pedal, ha ha.
