one month summary
since kyle's birthday much has happened...
july 26-31 - went to atlanta for the botanical garden and roxy shows. the highlight was the roxy show. i've never been so hot, sweaty and tired during a show. it was great! i also managed to fit in a trip to the aquarium, the new coke world (yes complete propoganda but i wanted to see the building), the annie lebovitz exhibit at the high museum of art, a show at eddie's attic and numerous trips to watershed and the flying biscuit. and the prefered method of transportation during this trip was a prius! for 10$ more a day, i was able to get us a prius. i can't believe how much gas you save with that thing.
august 3-6 - went to my gf's grandparents cottage with my gf, cornfusion and her gf and spend the majority of the time eating. the rest of the time was spent in the lake, in front of the fire, getting tasty monk cheese and talking about poo. it was a nice and relaxing weekend except for the hot water tank not working and i having to bathe with a giant pot of hot water. i'm not fussy about too many things but one thing i like is real plumbing and a hot shower. which is why i could never attend the michigan womyn's festival. that and bugs and well, many other reasons. anyways, i digress...
august 12-19 - went on the family vacation to chicago, cleveland, central valley (NY), kittery (ME), ogunquit (ME), freeport (ME) and north conway (NH). i somehow convinced my folks that it would be a good idea to take the 17.5 hour detour from chicago to maine so i could go to the freeport show. and in doing that and with the help of cornfusion we were able to surprise the hell out of indigokare for her bday. i don't think i've ever heard indigokare scream so loud. i wish i would've captured it on film. it was also exciting to see selar_ whom i haven't seen since the east coast amy ray prom tour and the rest of the east coast gang. that was probably the highlight of the vacay but i also enjoyed the rest of it thoroughly. chicago was excellent. it's an architecturally stunning city. it was my first time there and i fully intend on going back.
now for the visual portion of all the above:
- ATLANTA SHOWS
- ATLANTA
- COTTAGE
- FREEPORT SHOW
- CHICAGO/CLEVELAND/MAINE
