Vacation

As all can imagine, this vacation was quite typical. Consisting of several outdoor events, I decided I was going to ice fish, yet again. The water was cold, and the wind was worse, but this certainly didn't stop me from posting up on shore and chilling by the trees. I was kind of flabbergasted by the effect the wind had on my face after receiving a slight wind burn on the bridge of my nose. Half of the time spent on the ice this vacation was cold and miserable. The worst part was when the rain came, and everything turned to slush. This was an issue for me, not only because I hate being cold, but it was extremely wet. Ice fishing was the highlight of my vacation, but there were in fact some lows as well.

     Sunday, last week for instance. To put it bluntly, my cousin shot himself. Not on purpose, but it was declared accidental. This is just an example of what combining drinking and guns can do to you. I woke up on Sunday to a text stating that he had accidentally shot himself and he was in the hospital as the doctors were conducting surgery. The worst part about it all is that the wound he suffered from was to his head, so there isn't too much they can do about it. At the moment, he is in the intensive care unit section of Eastern Maine Medical Center, where he is being held on life support.
     Friday over vacation contained another downer, that being the fact that my dog chewed my seat belts. Of course, I had to fix them so I tore my interior apart, and realigned the seat belt because it had retracted. This was a highlight as well, because when I have a project to do I enjoy completing it.
A lot of eventful things happened over vacation, so I would say that it was a decent one. I enjoyed spending time with my brother, and I am happy to be back in school now.
