Kinevil Injured again!

              So two days ago Kinevil (bad luck dog), again hurt him self.  We have a trailer full of cats and hispanics next door (back side of RV) so obviously there is a little tension between the dogs and the cats.  The dogs have been exceptianly good with the given circumstances. 
          The first scheduled night shift, Lauren and I were relaxing on the front awning with dogs (secured not roaming free) Kinevil was sleeping under the RV, when the cat startled him, he jumped up and caught his back on the exuast bracket and split a 2" x1.5" gash on his back just below his scapula, deep, fleshy.  We were able to get antibiotics information for a family friend who is a long time family friend.  and do hydro therapy on it a couple times a day.  The wound should heal in about 10 days (hopefully), poor little guy.  Besides for that everything else is going smooth.  We will let u know kinevils progress

1st day orientation

We woke up early to take the dogs out for a walk before we went to hospital orientation, walked outa my door and to the corner and found a 20$ was psyched but then felt bad if it was one of my neighbors that they lost, and the first person that would have found it would have taken it.  Then we get to the area where the dog poop and kinevil jumped through this high grass like he smelled something, then we walked down further and then back and a deer jumped outa of the grass ran out of the grass and across State st and we thought that it made it accross but we heard it get hit, but was still alive in these peoples yard.  We felt so bad about it, cause it was inderectly related to us.  Then we had   we live near a major populated area  of Sandy UT in Salt Lake City county.  Sandy is really close to the Wasatch range mountains on the east side of Salt lake city (park city side),7 miles to the hospital, 6 mile to little cotton wood canyon, 12 miles to big cotton wood cayon, 100 miles to unitas granite, 109 miles to maple canyon, and 2 miles to Momentum climbing gym (sick gym!) ( I failed my lead bealy test, I thought the dude was joking with me ( I was pissed))  (Lauren thought it was the funniest thing).  Long story short we are staying in a sick as area.  its a mobile home park on the border of a super upscale mountain comunity, over wealthy sub urban comunity, and blue collar mexican workers in temp housing.  So needless to say it is much different than our last secluded house in the country

almost gone

Just getting finished with all the house work out in the country, thanks to laurens help, I have been working and cleaning when I get a chance, and of course climbing in some of the wettest conditions that i have ever had down here, we have had record floodings causing the ground to be soaked, then the falls acts like a sponge sucking the water out of the soil, shitty conditions good training for circuits on the beaver wall.  Luckily I got to send some of my projects before the conditions changed "Red Corvette" and "Shorty the Pimp" this spring and shoulda coulda but didnt send "devil on a leash".  There will always be more good days in So ILL to look forward to.  But next time it won't be out my back door.
We have just moved in the RV on Memorial Day weekend, the busiest camping day of the year. CRAZY! everywhere was sold out we got a spot a lake Murphysboro, The spot was barely enough room for the RV, all 55 spots were filled all weekend with wild campers.
We rented a pontoon boat with Laurens brother and sister-in-law and 2 children, and some local climbers came out with us, the winds were 25-30mph and the boat trafic was crazy and the water murky and cold, the climbing was good, food, friends, family, and brew were also good.   Monday we stilll had the pontoon boat and had a climber full pontoon boat, it rocked, the psych was high and so were we.  Cant wait to go back out after a couple of days of rest and work.
Today Hogan ate rodenicide cube but we had no bleeding or s/s of bleeding, we called poison controll, and the vet and some guidelines for saftey.  Hogan is a picky eater he won't eat pancakes or tortillas but he ate rodenicide.  this is the 1st update of the trip, hopefully there will be more climbing involved next post
