Drawing to a Close

Summer of 2006 is nearly finished. There was so much that I did, and yet there was still so much that I wanted to do!!! As cliche' as it sounds, it seems that I have a little less free time with every passing season. Thinking back, I can still remember summers as I boy (or even a teenager for that matter) that Summer was ENDLESS. I wonder if the ( Read more... )

Yay Update!

September camping sounds fun! Rich and I did some camping last September up in the mountains, where it also reached about 40 - 42ish at night. Once we were snuggled in our sleeping bags, it wasn't so bad...but that 4am trip to the restroom...oof! That was some serious cold! I won't even go into detail about the fridgid temperature of the metal toilet bowl seat...

Where do you go camping? Locally in (as in, in New England - VA, NH, ME), or do you go further south like Maryland, Georgia, etc? When I was growing up, we mostly went to KOA's in the above mentioned states in New England. As I got older, and we started taking our annual summer vacations in Florida to go to Disney, we started camping in the southern states. Camping in the south was fun - the people were so friendly, and there were campers all year round.

I hope you manage to get some "end of summer" camping in, Mike. Have a great time! And make Oskar an "egg in a frame" on the grill! Soooo goood!

Hooray Update!

Can you really tell that I spend less time in front of my computer? ;)

Kinda ironic when I am a "computer technician". :)

I can remember when summers were endless also! There was so much I wanted to do too, with Steffan. Some of which I can still do, but most of which are lost untill next season... but not to fret, I tell myself! Soon, there will be SLEDDING!!! YAY!

I love that you are finding such happiness with your family!

Yay, for sledding!

We are already making plans for winter, and planning a sledding trip very soon.

Happiness with the family? Heh...yeah, I guess I am ! !

Sledding nestie September 28 2006, 21:25:23 UTC

My husband was telling me about these sleds that he almsot bought at Costco - how they were super-aerodynamic, etc. I just looked at him blankly...we live in San Diego. But then we had talked about going to Big Bear in the past for a winter trip.

Anyhoo, I got to see those sleds on a recent trip to Costco. There is no way you will get my @$$ on one of those. I think not only would I hit terminal velocity, but I'd probably spontaneously combust due wind friction or something. They looked like fun sleds tho =)

hee-hee....yes. I remember sledding when I was younger, and I am amazed that I never managed to break a bone! The sleds that they are coming out with nowadays are super high tech! I guess no one uses a inner tube, or the old red ryder sled anymore!

I hope that we get enough snow this year for some descent sledding, it one of the few perks to living in New England! :)
