G. Canyon Village project

Hey everyone!
I know it's been awhile, but I haven't got much time free and I guess I am a bit lazy to. But now you will get the story of my life for the last 14 days at once! Wow, can't wait can you?

I have been on two projects at the G. Canyon village, just came back from the last one this Friday. The one I just came home from was boring! We stayed at a cabin, with a kitchen and restrooms. Almost each days after work we stayed in the cabin playing RISK. (Everyone know RISK I assume) and each time I won, more or less. The work we did at the village was this simple: Firefighters cut down trees, we pick up trees, we drive trees to dump and dropped trees dump - tihi. Actually that's was about it, nothing really exiting happened.

BUT the first time we were there was GREEEEEaaT!
We stayed in a hotel called The Grand, which is one of the most expensive hotel in the area. Each night (normal price was 175 dollars) - Chris payed 50, plus he got dinner coupons for the hole week for free! We were 6 on the project and we ate for 200 dollars each night. Here is what I got the 4 days I were there:


  1. Black grilled ribs with potatoes, and a huge brownie.
  2. Grilled Elk (mums), and a giant ice cake.
  3. Grilled Salmon with potatoes and vegetables, and a chess cake.
  4. Grilled Salmon again. But this time a chocolate cake.

But the best was the helicopter flight over the grand canyon the last day. Yeah that's right I got on a helicopter and saw the grand canyon. I cant explain how great is was! We had to pay only 6 dollars for it, because we worked for the grand canyon crew. on the flight over Grand Canyon I used all my memory on my memory card. Took like 50 pictures and 8 videos!

Over and out.
