Went hiking on Sunday with my teammate from Rochester. He found us Camel's Hump about 30 miles from Burlington to go climb up since it was so perfect of an afternoon. It was a lot of fun but showed how out of shape I am still even though I have been working out this past year and losing weight. I can do 3.5 miles on the elliptical machine no problem, and do 30 minutes on the stairmaster without problems... but do some actual hiking on multi-level terrain is something totally different. No, I didn't make it to the top although after looking at these pictures, I'm kind of wishing I would have gone the full way. There is no snow up there but a ton of trees and most of them have started to change colors. Was just nice to get out in the middle of nowhere and enjoy nature.
Here are some pictures to enjoy that I took. Might actually frame one or two of these for my new townhouse:
It was a good afternoon to say the least:) This week I'll still be here in Burlington, not sure about the whole week or not - depends on how work goes the next couple of days. But on tap for sure yet is a visit to the Headquarters of Ben & Jerry's!! I'll let you know how that goes!! They don't make ice cream on Saturdays, Sundays, or Mondays so I'll have to go on Tuesday for lunch. I think it's only about 20 minutes from here. Yum yum.
Sorry for the short post today but figured I'd keep it short today for once. If you can call this short!
Song of the Day - So I finally watched Purple Rain the movie with Prince/Symbol-Man/&$^! (mix all of those together to make his symbol)/Artist formerly known as Prince/Artist... it's a weird movie and the acting is pretty bad but I now have Purple Rain going through my head which thanks to Jeff K from my buddy Chad's wedding last year (Happy Anniversary Chad and Courtney btw - on Saturday), I now consider that one of the greatest slow songs EVER for a wedding. Going to have this going through my head all night though I'm afraid:(
Video of the Day - Per Rachael (my sister-in-law) - I watched Eulogy. Interesting movie with Rip Torn, Ray Romano, Kelly Preston (who is one of the hottest women on the planet I've decided... just go watch Jerry McGuire... on second hand, watch the first 10 minutes when she's screaming and .... then shut it off before it gets shitty for the next 110 minutes)..... but it also has Hank Azaria who does half the voices on the Simpsons!!! He was pretty funny as he always is. Back to Kelly Preston... she plays a lesbian who is getting married to Famke Janssen so that alone is reason to watch:)
Webpage of the Day - I'm in an artsy fartsy mood again today (get used to it) so here's something to appease your visual senses (no not more pictures of Kelly Preston although that's a thought). http://www.liquidsculpture.com/galleries.htm Liquid Sculpture has some incredible pictures of drops.... you have to go there to see what I'm talking about. But my favorites are in the Milk and Cream section, and some of the Squirts section. The Pournography section is pretty funny too! I hope you enjoy this one - it's quite unique!
Have a great day! And a great week!!!
