Went to the rock gym last night with the meetup group. It wasn't an OMG super fantastic time, but at the same time, it was quite awesome ( Read more... )

We went mountain biking on Saturday at West Branch State Park. Some really wicked mountain biking trails there. A bit more advanced than I would have liked. Mostly, I took it really slow. I started gaining a bit of confidence and going faster. While going over a small bridge, I looked up to see what the trail ahead looked like, and veered off ( Read more... )

Much hiking this weekend!

Saturday morning started off with a run. Nothing spectacular.

Then, Saturday night was orienteering with my adventurers meet-up group. It was an absolute blast! Boy was I *NOT* prepared though! I really didn't know what to expect. Well, there was a huge group there, since it was the North Eastern Ohio Orienteering ( Read more... )

So I got pissed at Dennis and had to get away. I went down to the metroparks. Sat by the river for while. Then I got up and paced back and forth on the balance beam that's part of the fitness trail. Played on the parallel bars for a very short while. Tried to do some push-ups, realized that in addition to my shoulder, my elbow also still hurts ( Read more... )

Things started out a bit rocky, since there was a bit of miscommunication, and the people we were meeting went to the wrong campground. There is absolutely ZERO cell phone reception there, so it was hard to figure out what was ( Read more... )

So I have been awesome lately ( Read more... )

Dennis and I went for a walk in the park yesterday after work. I don't consider it a hike since it was on one of those paved all-purpose (running, biking, skating) trails. We walked for a good fifty minutes, it was quite nice ( Read more... )

So I was in Colorado this past weekend. Went up to Estes Park to hang with the Tower peeps. While there, I was determined to go on a hike. There was quite a bit of snow, though, so my plan to summit Deer Mountain wasn't going to happen, alas ( Read more... )

So Dennis and I went skiing on Saturday at Peek'n Peak. As per usual, we headed out the door about an hour later than we'd planned, but still got to the resort at about 10:30am. Swung by McDonald's for some breakfast then hit the road. The trip there was rather uneventful. It's been quite a few years since I'd been there, so I ended up ( Read more... )

So I was planning on going high pointing this Saturday for my birthday. Most of the time will be spent in a car.

But it doesn't seem like the weather is going to be very nice. Not to mention, I'm just so damned exhausted and drained and have so much other crap to do. But who wants to spend their birthday doing homework?

Dunno what I'm going to
