And so it continues....

Wow... four years and no blog!

The last four years have been extremely busy with my job as the Director of Recreation.  It was a great opportunity and a great way to be a positive contributor to my community.  During that time my back was a serious issue and it limited me from being able to walk more than 100 m without excruciating pain.  The good news is that a quick surgery solved the problem and I was finally able to get back to my love of the mountains two summers ago.  Tracey and I spent a lot of our time backpacking, hiking biking, and boating (with our 17 ft crestliner).  We took up fishing in these past four years and are pretty decent anglers as a result.  Food security continued to be a passion of ours and it progressed into the sport of hunting in pursuit of clean and healthy meat.  Last summer brought me back to Jasper where I finally climbed Mt Edit Cavell... no one can ever understand how emotional and fulfilling this trip was for me.  As well, we tackled Proposal Peak (successful) and reached 100 m from the summit of Diadem Peak... that would have assured us Wooley as well, but conditions made it impossible.  Either way, it was nice to get back into alpine climbing and more importantly to ascend to over 11,000 ft.  I needed to do this to prove that there was nothing physically limiting me in anyway.  We have also traveled a fair bit these past years: Several trips to Mexico, Dominican Republic, Honduran Bay Islands, Netherlands, and Northern BC to name a few.

 My employment is now ending with the District of Lillooet, what an experience it was!  I learned so much in so little time and can see myself continuing in Local Government of BC.  I made a positive impact in this community and learned just as much about myself as I did about the world of Local Government... how much you might ask?... I'm pretty much an expert on the subject of "Wayne Robinson"!  

The reason for resurecting this blog is our impending departure on our next great adventure:  Central America.  Most of my posts on this blog will be through Instagram... but if time allows I may post every so often to keep everyone current with some corresponding text.  Hey, pictures may be worth 1000 words, put on a blog I can type 1001!
