Ten Years Ago

I have plenty to catch you all up on in my life this week, but today is not my day. Today belongs to all those who lost their lives on September 11th, 2001. 


Please spend a few moments listening to the music and looking through the list of victims whose lives here on Earth were cut short ten years ago.


May the spirit of God be with us all this day as we remember.

Labor Day Weekend

What a weekend it has been.


I drove down to Provo Friday and headed straight to a BYU Women's Soccer game. A thrilling 2-1 victory started the night. After the game, I met up with Evan and some friends and made some quesadillas and went swimming and hot tubbing. Around 1 am, I headed back to Evan's place and spent the night. The following morning, Mike and I set up for a day of football, including a BYU game watching party. I brought my home theater stuff down and we set up a nice party at Evan's. We watched Utah State nearly pull off the huge upset at Auburn before a bunch of people came over for the BYU game. I made red velvet cupcakes and cowboy cookies, which were AMAZING! Raspberries have been on sale 2 for $3, which is a heck of a deal, so I HAD to make cupcakes.

The game made me nervous, but in the end we got the win. I threw my hat more than I would like to in a game, but enough people prayed in the 4th quarter that I ended happy. I look forward to next week's game at Texas.

We went to Mike's church today, then Evan's break the fast. The rest of the weekend Mike and I have spent hanging at Evan's, watching movies. Labor Day plans include a mid-day BYU Women's Soccer game before I have to head back up north for a day of work Tuesday before I head back down Wednesday to help Camilla begin her college experience!!

This week will be full of excitement. I'll take Camilla to college, enjoy some sports events, cater some big meals this week, and then I'll hopefully have a nice, relaxing Sunday. At some point, I have some car maintenance to take care of too.

Hope everyone has a great last unofficial day of summer, AKA, Labor Day!

September





 It's hard to believe that September is upon us. Monday is the unofficial end of summer. Within a few days...






football will take over every weekend,






everyone who hasn't started school will start,







days will grow shorter,











the temperature will slowly drop,


 










the leaves will start to turn colors and fall,













and then, depending on where you are in the country, either snow or miserable cold rain will fall.






With the end of summer so close, I thought I would share the fun things I was able to do this summer.

The hands down most exciting part of my summer was flying home to Virginia to cater my sister Amelia's wedding.





At home for a week, I catered the wedding reception,








saw as many DC landmarks as I could in a day and a half,


























spent time with family, and all in all had a great time.








I saw so many things in DC that, without a map, I couldn't begin to tell you just how many places we actually saw. I can tell you, however, that my dad and I had a fun time over at the Air and Space Smithsonian in a flight simulator.







Down in Southern Utah, I did as much as I could. I hiked many of the hikes in Zion National Park, including the treacherous and renowned Angel's Landing. The picture on the right, which I did not photograph, is a view from up on Angel's Landing.









In Zion, I also went canyoneering through Echo Canyon. The portion of the slot canyon we went through included 4 or 5 repels, a little bit of down climbing, wet suits, echo chambers, and a whole lot of fun. You can see how narrow Echo Canyon can get on the right. 






At the ranch I played many rounds on this mini golf course,





did some four wheeling,







and spent many hot days and cool nights in the double-decker, gravity edge pool and hot tubs.















For my birthday, I went jet skiing on a 250hp, 65 mph top-speed beast of a machine...it was amazing!







Every fun thing I did, I thank all my new friends from the ranch for making them happen.



Here's to the end of the summer and to what is already looking like a great fall!

The Wow Moment

I was heading home from a long day at work today and as I turned a corner, I had a wow moment. I look around me and I thought, wow, I'm living and working in Logan, Utah.

A picture of campus
It's an interesting story how I ended up here. At the start of the summer I found out that most of the staff at the Ponderosa came from Utah State. In the mostly joking way we humans tend to be, they were like, you should come to Utah State. I joked with some of them and said if things didn't work out at the resort, I would come bum at their place and be their private chef. As the summer progressed and things actually did start to not work out at the resort, everyone continued to say, come to Logan, come to Utah State. Knowing how the job market is and how colleges hire mostly students and have very limited, if any, full-time positions available, I had absolutely no expectation that I would even have the slightest bit of luck at finding work in Logan, especially at the one place I would want to work: Utah State. I especially did not think I would ever see Logan when I was offered work at Weber State. I was pretty close to going to Weber when things changed. Just as a shot in the dark and knowing that they would be doing fall hiring within weeks, I looked up the catering's contact information on USU's website. I sent the executive chef an email informing him of my interest in work and attached my resume. This was before I even knew about jobs at Weber State. So when the Weber State offer came, I gave it a week to think it over and decided I would pursue that further. Then almost one month ago to the day, on Thursday, July 28th, a response came:


"Thanks for the interest in employment, currently we are hiring for several positions within my areas. I would like to talk to you about one of those positions in particular. When will you be done for the season in Zion and when would you be available?
Give me a call as soon as you can so we can discuss what would be the best fit for you."
  
I immediately called the chef. He was at a softball game, so we set a time for me to call the next day. The following morning, before I had even called him, I wrote my two weeks notice at the Ponderosa. That afternoon I called and we discussed things. It sounded like things were already wrapped up and I had a job. I talked to the chef at the Ponderosa and she gave me time off to go up to Logan to make everything official. That Tuesday I went up, secured the job, secured housing, and went back to finish my time at the ZPR. A few weeks later I move, start my job, then after a week a job becomes open in catering and here I am, doing exactly what I wanted to be doing in a place I never thought I would get a job. 

A picture of Logan
Well, that's basically the story of how I went from working at the Ponderosa to being in Logan in less than a month. Life is good. 

The song of the day is staying the same for now because my computer is experiencing technical difficulties.

Catering

Friday I worked an eleven and a half hour day.

I loved it.

Life all of a sudden feels much more in place now that I am working in catering. It seemed kind of tumultuous during the 3 days I was managing the Marketplace. Not necessarily like it was a bad thing, but I seemed unsettled. In catering, I feel at home. I think the coming months are going to be fantastic.

Our apartment continues to do fun things like movie nights, camping, bonfires, and possibly another swimming trip to Bear Lake this afternoon. Logan really is a nice place to live. The canyon offers hiking, biking, fishing, climbing, camping, campfires and more, all within 10-15 minutes of home. I haven't even discovered the secrets in the city because we've spent all our time outside of the city. When things get cold in a month or so I'll start exploring downtown.

Football season is starting too, which is exciting. I have to follow two schools closely this year. I have no problem rooting for the Aggies, but we all know just how true blue for BYU I am.

The song of the day today actually has a good story behind it for me. This song actually sort of spawned my big summer of change last year. When working at Seven Peaks last summer, I was the opening supervisor one morning. I was the only one there and I was doing some office work for the day while listening to some music on the computer. Different songs speak to me at different times in my life and at this time, I really liked listening to this song. So there I was listening to this song when one of the managers came in. He walked in, looked at me and said "Wow, that is one of the most depressing things I've ever seen. You're sitting there at the desk all alone in an empty building, listening to that classic rock song. You gotta stop living in the past man." It was then I realized I had been living in the past and I need to move on in life. Since then, a lot has changed and all in all I have to say I'm glad that he said what he said when he said it. I still like the song though, so sit back, relax and enjoy "Fields of Gold".

New Position at Work

I have great news today, but first I have to recap a story from the other day. So, Tuesday night we were pre-closing at work when I find out an employee gashed his head open a bit. He was doing some cleaning and a piece of equipment fell and cut his head pretty good. I called my bosses and took him to the ER. We spent an hour there, where he got all stitched up and all was well. It was my 3rd day managing and I was the only manager there, so it was a fun night. Thankfully though, I don't have to deal with injuries or babysit people all day anymore because I now have a new job in the kitchen.

When I was offered the position as closing manager, it was sort of a foot in the door position that may or may not ever evolve into a spot within the catering department, which is where I wanted to work. They said it was a possibility that next summer they might have a spot doing catering, but that I should do the manager job as if nothing would happen. Well, today I got a lucky break. The banquet chef was going to open a position this weekend and interview people for a job cooking for catering. The chefs were discussing it and realized an opportunity to move things around without hiring anyone new. The original plan for my job was to promote a student who is done with school and had been working here a while to be the closing supervisor. However, he was not sure how long he was going to stay in Logan, so then when they got my resume they had that job to create for me. With catering needing someone though and my desire and my experience being with that, they wanted to move me to catering and then put the other other guy as closing manager since he will be here at least through the end of this semester. And so today, they sat down with him and me and made it all official. I will start in catering today (Thursday).

I'm way excited for this new job. The closing manager position was fun, but it really was a lot more babysitting and it was not what I truly wanted to be doing. It's also great because now I don't have to worry about not ticking everyone off for being the outsider. Another plus is that my schedule will be nicer. I'll be done much earlier in the evening and will be home by 6 or 7 rather than 10 or 11. I'll have to do some weekend work, but all in all, the pros FAR outweigh the cons.

In other news, I received a hilarious email from my dad today. Here is what he sent:


Pretty funny eh?
And I would like to add that my thoughts and prayers are with all those who lost a book or a tea cup in the recent earthquake. Hehehe.

Well, that's the latest from Logan. Today's song of the day is just a random song I picked because I'm too distracted to find a song with a story. This one is a good one though. You'll find it in some movies, like "A Walk to Remember." You'll also find it on my ipod. Keep it real everyone.

Fun and Busy Times

I've been keeping pretty busy this week. I work every day from 2 or 3 until 10, and then my roommates and I are doing something every night before school starts. Sunday evening we drove up to Bear Lake and last night we went camping up the canyon. We'll see what the rest of the week brings.

Work is going ok. The next week or two will be a little tense because there are people who have worked there for a year or more and know more about how this kitchen works and think they should have my job. So, although I learn quickly and know how most of everything here runs already, I have to tread lightly so I don't offend people. This week I'll spend with the people who have worked here longest and see what I can learn from them and gain their respect. I understand how they feel. When you've been working somewhere and someone is hired as your manager, it can be difficult to deal with. Thus, I'll be less of a manager this week and more of a worker and hopefully no one will hate me...yet.

For the song of the day today, we're going back to the 70's and Cat Stevens.

I'm Back!

It's been a long, challenging summer, most of which I do not want to really think about, but we learn, we grow, and we move along in life, and that is what I am doing. My first week in Logan has been good. Today, we opened the Aggie Marketplace dining area that I manage. It is not any kind of a high end restaurant by any stretch of the imagination, but so far I love it and it's exciting. It's really exciting being in a new place and meeting new people. I think the coming months will be great up here in the northern part of Utah.

Anyway, I just wanted to put a quick update on here to let you all know that I am pretty well settled in now and I will be starting to post updates on here. Until the next update, enjoy the song of the day. The song, a ballad, is "Feels Like Home" sung by Canadian singer Chantal Kreviazuk and written by the great singer/songwriter Randy Newman.

Sorry

My apologies for not being able to update this in so long. The internet was horrible for awhile and is now seeming to be consistently better. I've also been busy and was pretty sick last week. Either way, here is a quick update and I will do my best to update much more frequently as there is always so much to update about. I'll just list things and briefly describe them this time:

I am doing great in the kitchen and have earned a small raise and will get lots of quality learning time cooking with the chef.

I went on an amazing hike the other day. I felt totally amazing during and after the hike. I'm in pretty good shape, even after being sick.

After 2 consecutive weekends involving a couple inches of accumulating snow, this week has been warming up. Looks like summer may finally be here to stay. The evenings are beautiful right now. Tonight we played ultimate frisbee and volleyball for a few hours. It was loads of fun.

By the end of this summer, I should be a pool, poker, basketball, volleyball, hiking, and cooking master.

I have come to an absolute, 100,000,000% for sure conclusion that being here this summer is, without any sliver of doubt, the best and right place for me to be at this time in my life.

That's all I got for today. Look for frequent updates here on out. As long as the internet goes strong, so too will my blog. To conclude, I leave you a poem I wrote about the recent weather:


Summer Weather Blues
By: Jon Meier

I took myself a summer job, I thought it would be hot,
But since the day I got here, it really has been not.
Several days the temperature went down into the blue,
And more than once the white stuff fell; accumulated too!

Even when it’s warmer, the rain comes falling down,
Which makes for lots o’ misery this far away from town.
I used to go out in the night and see the moon and stars,
But recently the clouds have blocked both Jupiter and Mars.

The mud is deep and everywhere, RVs can’t come and park,
And danger lies in going out with puddles hid by dark.
The sunsets were so pretty, now they don’t exist,
They too are hidden by those clouds of rain and snow and mist.

They say it will get better; I’d like to think they’re right,
I want to sleep without the worry of freezing to death at night.
I guess I’ll give this weather a chance to turn around,
So I can live this summer, warm and safe and sound.

Mother

A very brief update on the resort: Had yesterday (Saturday) afternoon and today (Mother's Day) off. Went to St. George yesterday. Bought 2 for $5 flip flops at Old Navy and a sweet polo from clearance for $8. Got a haircut. Bought shampoo. Saw Thor at the movie theater. Had In n' Out for dinner. Bought some crackers and cheese packs for snacks and a bit of candy from the dollar store. All in all, it was a good afternoon.



HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY!


A Quick Poem to My Mother
By: Jon Meier

Mother you're the very best,
You're always very nicely dressed.
You taught me how to do what's right,
Like when you scared me for breaking curfew that one night.

You always cook delicious food,
You're always in a happy mood.
You're always looking out for us,
And work hard without a big fuss.

For all you do throughout each year,
I want to make it very clear,
I'm grateful for all you have done,
To shape me into a great son.

HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY MOM! 
I LOVE YOU!
~JON

Cinco de Mayo

 

I couldn't decide which picture was more awesome...so I put 'em both up!







Sorry my updates have been sparse. I'm still working long hours and the internet has been awful this week. I've only been able to check my email a couple times. Today, it's suddenly working, so I better update before it's gone. That and I only have 1 hour between shifts and most of that has been spent taking care of more important things. 

Today is Cinco de Mayo, but, sadly, this year I am not having any kind of party. That means no sweet pork burritos. Sad, sad day. It's ok though, I'm not Hispanic...

The past two days we've had a diabetic group here doing some sort of a camp thing. I haven't had much time (or internet) to look it up, but they have a website called insulindependence.org. It's interesting being around them a lot. You would think it's just a normal group of kids and adults, but they all have Type 1 Diabetes and either have insulin pumps in them or they take insulin shots. It's just been interesting watching there process while here. They are counting their carbs and doing these journals and it is eye opening to see a little into their world living with diabetes. They have been having a great time here though doing all our activities. Aside from regular meals in the dining hall, we've done a dutch oven dinner and a hamburger lunch out at our big campfire/picnic area for them. I was in charge of running those meals, so that's when I spent a couple hours hanging around them.

With that group here, we've also had a different group that we are doing off-site food for. The diabetic group also comes to breakfast early so they can do their carb counting, insulin counting, journal writing and all that. So, for the past 2 days and then again tomorrow, I've been coming in at 6 am rather than 7. It's tiring, but I'm starting to really learn the kitchen, so things are going great. Next week I'm even helping train someone I think. 

Well, it's time to head back to work. Happy Cinco de Mayo to you all.

Sunday Off

Today was my first day off. I at first thought I was supposed to work the morning and have the afternoon off, but then realized that changed and I had all day off. I didn't sleep in too much because messing with a good sleep schedule on a non-Friday night is never good for me. I went to stake conference in Kanab and just chilled. I played a wholesome Sunday video game, Monkey Island, and took a nap. I also have Monday morning off and a couple evening's off this week, so things are settling a bit. In 5 days I got over 40 hours in, which is twice as many hours than I've worked since last summer, and easily more than 4 times the amount of work...calling washing cars work is laughable...though it's the best job to have if you're in school. Anyway, some time off has been nice and I'm looking forward to getting back in the kitchen.

It's been pretty cold the past 2 days, but it's warming up and will get right on up there to 70 and 80 this week, like it should be. More guys are moving in the dorms which means a couple things. One, more people means a little more heat in here. Two, it means we don't have to hole up in our corners, we can start playing cards and such. We're going hot tubbing tonight, which will be fun until we get out. The wind has been howling, so I may freeze solid. I'll probably go from the hot tub to the pool house right up from it and shower. That will keep me warm...and clean! I think I'll end the night with a movie in bed. That sounds like a good day off to me.

Everything looks good for me to be able to go to church and stay active. That'll be good. I need to talk to the chef to see if I'll have the same sunday times off consistently so I can be in one ward and not bouncing between the two. Then I'll talk to the bishop of that ward and figure out mission stuff.

Goals for me this summer are:
-Pay off bank and tuition (should take only 2 paychecks)
-Forward my mail with the post office (which I may email someone at home to do for me since I didn't get a form when I moved and I don't have a dollar to do it online
-Save $$$$$$$$$$
-Get out and enjoy the best area mother nature has to offer...national parks every direction, lakes, sand dunes, hikes, ATVs, climbing, rappelling...I'm going to have fun!
-Get them mission papers in for pete's sake!
-Not die...this goal carries over for all seasons...I gave away my book about death-free living, but I think I can manage without it


I left the song of the day alone...I figure Dad would want to hear it one more time...

Last Couple Days

Four full days of work are now under my belt. In the morning, which will be over by the time you all read this, I am running the morning breakfast alone. I will be the only cook there. Just me. All by myself. Uno chef. Yours truly. It won't be too hard. The only thing that has been difficult is learning how Chef Frances wants everything. She does a lot of things differently and it has to be done right the way she wants it, so there's been some tense moments. I figure the first couple weeks will be like this until I know everything well. The kitchen has been a little unorganized, but it's mostly the way we want it now, so I hopefully won't have to go looking for things in 5 different places. Despite the stress and tense moments and 10-11 hour days this week, I'm still excited to be here and to hopefully learn a ton.

The past couple nights I enjoyed a couple campfires. There was an employee one that was ok, then there were some guests that had one that me and a couple of my dining room staff went over to. That one was great. There were two small guest groups with people from all over. One group of two ladies was from Vegas. One is a police officer and the other a bar owner. I think it was a mother/daughter kind of thing. I swear the police woman was on Cops once. The other group was 5 ladies who all came together for a vacation. The grandma from Vegas, the mom from Florida, the daughter from college somewhere, and the other daughter lives in England. They had dined here a couple times so we were familiar with them. Anyway, they were a hilarious bunch of people and it was a fun time sitting out on a nice night around a fire. They all came in this morning for breakfast and said hello.

It's nice to meet guests here and find out where they are all from and why they come here. Some have been here before and love it, others have been in the area before but not to our resort, which was the case with the Vegas ladies, who always come up to the St. George area every year for a nice vacation. I met an older gentleman from Seattle who was taking a long trip and was staying here for 4 nights. He and his wife will then head down to Arizona, possibly stop at the Grand Canyon, then visit a museum of natural that he is excited to see that has exhibits on how the area was formed and all that. They have a couple other stops planned and will be on the road for a good little while.

Things are going good. I'm getting plenty of sleep. I'm up at 6:30 and into work at 7. Right now I work till about 1 and then have a couple hours off to rest more and such before going in from around 3 or 4 till 8 or so. Once more kitchen staff get here and get trained, I'll work more just mornings, but Chef Frances wants me to cook with her a lot, so I'll be doing a lot of everything. Right now I'm just trying to master all I can so I solidify my spot as a leader in the kitchen. Frances has tons of confidence in me and has told me how she really, really, really wanted me to come down here and that I am perfect for the job. She said even before talking with the chef I worked with before she picked me out of 50 applications for the job. I certainly don't want to let them down because they seriously can't stress enough to me how much they wanted me to come down and work and learn and be a part of the kitchen this year. I will say though, it feels good to be wanted and appreciated...especially after some of the jobs I've had *cough* Sundance and Seven Peaks *cough*

Feel free to write me letters.

Oh, and this song is dedicated to dad. I'm sure he's singing along right now. If he's at home, I'm sure everyone is singing along right now. You'll have to add your own "woo hoos" in the chorus ($20 says he already has).

First Day

This morning I went in for my first day of work back at the resort. It went pretty well. It looks like the morning will be similar to what it was before, except that I have real authority this time, better pay, and I will learn tons more! Right now, things are really slow, but they will pick up a ton real soon, which is good because this gives me some time to adjust to everything before I'm expected to run it all. I think by Friday I'm expected to be able to pretty much do it all. So it will be a very fast week. Since very few employees are here so far, I'll also be helping out at dinner, so I'll go back in for that in a few hours. I heard it snowed up in the Provo/Salt Lake area today. Nothing like that down here, but it is quite chilly and windy today. I am bundled up with lots of blankets and 2 of my comforters to keep warm at night. I'll also put socks on tonight and sleep with my hoodie. That should solidify my comfort.

So far, everything is good down here. I have chef pants and chef coats and once I can afford them, I'll get some good kitchen shoes. Don't want my good shoes ruined. That's about all the news today.
