Well another week done, It was a Bitch of a week too, Monday started off with with a 5 kilometer hike with full packs, over the roughest terrain we have up there, crackly loose sharp lava, which we call (Aa,aa) lava, this stuff will cut thru the toughest leather hiking boots they make. Well we walked and spayed weeds around the endangererd plants for 5 hours straight, before we could walk out and get some water and have lunch, my two partners and I felt like burnt french fries that was in the oil to long..lol..but that was monday, Tuesday was no better, the only thing good was that they flew us out in a Helicopter to a remote sight, and after 5 hours of work it was time to walk out, the walk was not that bad just uphill for 3 miles..lol..Wednesday was no better, we had a lot of spraying to do at a lot of different sites, but first let me explain that Hawaii has the most rare and endangered plants in the whole world, almost 95% of the plants are here in Hawaii, so we really take it very seriouly to protect these plants, if we lose them they would be gone forever.

Well anyways we walked and sprayed all day until we were exhausted, little did I know that I had twisted my knee while walking on some loose lava, it didn't feel that bad at the time and I didn't worry about it, and kept on working, the next morning (Thursday) I couldn't walk on it, my knee had swollen up, it hurt just to look at it ..lol.. so I knew that all the weeks activities had done it's job, I couldn't go to work today, it needed to be iced down and rested, so I got 4 days to get it back in shape, today it's not that bad the swelling went down a little, and I can hobble around a, little better than staying in bed all day..lol..and Yesterday I got to spend a little time on the IM with my Lady! It's always a pleasure to see her, God she's Gorgeous, I can sit here and look at her all day, and I have ..lol.. put it wasn't long before she had to go to bed, so I was left to to just relax and enjoy the day at home.

Well that what I've been up to this week nothing much, just another typical day in Hawaii.

Sounds like a bitch of a week love, take it easy.

Ouch...that hurts! Hope your knee feels better soon.

Well I certainly agree Hawaii's plant and animal life has to be protected at all costs..there are so many from both categories that are gone forever. Hope your feeling better!
