i climbed a mountain

Sep 16, 2007 15:30

it's not every day that you get to climb a mountain, literally.
yesterday happened to be one of those days, however. It all started when i was the only one in Moose House to actually wake up on time (this is where i woke up, my master bedroom:
), and i also happened to notice that it was pouring outside. The boys decided that we'd leave an hour later, but i fell fast asleep. When i woke, we hurriedly packed the little tomato (pictured in front of the vegan smoothie stand near the bridge to Maine in New Hampshire:
), and were soon on our way up to Moosehead.

As you may remember, we traveled the few hours North to Moosehead a couple weeks ago, but the decision had been made to get dirty in the land either by hiking or paddling, so we could feel even more enthused about protecting the liquid heart of Maine's North Woods. Due to the rain, a muddy hike was in order. We were destined to conquer Little Moose Mountain.

(i did it!! even though i almost wussed out multiple times)

I have the greatest roommates. and just in case either of them ever propose to me, i now have pictures to turn into the Save the Date refrigerator magnets for you to remember.





last friday, lucas and i checked out Super Bad due to our undying love for arrested development after a long night at the office. george michael is my favorite, and i couldn't help but enjoy the cinematic escape. i also showed him Unity Pond after a failed event i planned to have on campus friday night, but having also been race night in Unity, ME, the tree-lined beach granted the pond superb acoustics for amplifying the sound of revving race car engines.

most importantly, i came across a sweet vintage knitting needle set at a yard sale in a hay tent out in some rural place on the way to Moosehead - and i picked up some yarn at a hunting outfitter/grocery store/gift shop. i'm bringing crafty back.

i was thinking - wouldn't it be great if professor coldheart and global warming duked it out?
