Today is Valentines day. I am very thankful for my wonderfully awesome girlfriend who built- a monkey for me. I know its called build a bear, but monkeys are just so much cooler. But im really just glad i got to see her.

So this weekend, we were supposed to get like a foot of snow. Well, we got like, a foot of snow. mixed in with Thunderstorms? Yeah. And poweer outages, and tree fallings. Needless to say, it was a pretty nasty storm. It was so windy and cold that one of the pine trees in the yard actually fell. Pretty damn close to the house too, we got really lucky.



Yes, thats the neighrors house. It actually hit the next tree in line, which just about fell too. My parents woke me up and made me sleep in the basement just incase it fell. It was slanted right over the house so, it was kind of a scary night.



This is the other tree. We had to get up in the morning and tie it down so it would stay until we got it cut down today. It looked like it was about to come down.



I havent seen this place covered with that much snow in awhile.



So after we got the tree fiasco settled, I picked aislinn up and we spent some time here, before going back to her house and finding out that she didnt have school. Thats real fair. I ended up with a 2 hour delay but 2 hour delays are proabably the worst things ever.

An interesting weekend to say the least. I did get to spend most of it with aislinn though. It was cold, and snowy instead of like tropic.

Thursday Im headed to tennessee to hike Leconte again, only this time in the snow. Theres 41 inches of snow on the mountain. Lol, well see how this goes. Atleast ill have some cool pictures right?
