Last night in the distant North

My grandmother's party on Sunday was very pleasant. Even if I have too darn many relatives. I'm going to have to get photos and label them with many many labels if I'm to have the chance of remembering anyones' names at all.
Monday, went and looked at a primitive plants theme garden with fake dino bones and real other fossils (a couple even of actual note). In the evening we had a beach party with a bonfire. It was a good night out, though again having too darn many relatives to learn names properly.
Today, my (slightly crazy) Aunt Ellen took my dad and me across to the west coast of Vancouver Island on a day trip. Scenery was good, if very reminiscent of home.
I realised today why I've only been missing one person mostly, and it's not for the creepy reasons I'd assumed. I'm playing a psychological game with myself, missing one person is much easier than missing many.

Tomorrow morning I have to pack up quick as I fly out of here about ten in the morning. On which note, I should sleep.
