It all started Friday afternoon. Parent teacher interviews were done for another term and March Break was just around the corner. I wanted, nay, NEEDED to do something. And I needed to do something that was not in Kamloops. I knew Tiersa would be up to do pretty much anything - because the two of us always like to have fun. We argued about pranking people for a while, debated the low points of Kamloops and how our whole group of friends is stuck in the rut of coffee and movies being the only thing we ever do. I was determined to do something different. Three hours later we were on our way to Merritt British Columbia. People from this area know about Merritt. For my home-boys in Ontario, lets just say it is comparable to Clinton. So much in fact that minus all the cowboys walking around, it pretty much was an exact replica. Including a Peopo's Family Restaurant, Stedmans, Triangle Discount and one stoplight.

Tiersa took me to her favourite restaurant where we dined one some fine cuisine and then I suggested a tour of the Merritt Walk of Stars. (It's what the Radar is to Clinton.) We also looked at the town's various murals (doesn't Clinton have a Mural Tour? )We spent some time looking for 'the lookout' but were unsuccessful even though apparently there is a big flag at the top and it is impossible not to find it. We ate a fun dip, listened to plenty of S Club 7, Backstreet Boys, 98degrees and Hilary Duff.

All in all, it was pretty much the perfect date. Except that Tiersa is not a cute boy and... well I'm pretty sure that "loves S Club 7" is not on my list of things that makes a boy attractive.

Here's some pictures

Me and Kenny Rogers


Look out Nicole Kidman. Tiersa is all over your man... well his hand print...


I could totally be a Dixie Chick



Paul Brandt is nice. So is Tiersa.
