Photos and tales of our glorious Green Mountain State adventures.
Spent a large chunk of my Independence Day in the car… Decided to hike Mt. Independence — a historic Revolutionary War site here in Vermont — but underestimated the drive time. 90 minutes? Nope. Try two hours each way. (Ugh.) No major complaints there though — the drive was certainly scenic (though I believe that […]
Too much going on here at the home front. Moving ish is taking its toll. What with “the complications” and all. (If you don’t know, don’t ask…) The past couple weeks have been hellishly exhausting though, that’s the one thing that is for 100% certain. No end of work on the Work front (which I […]
In a “that’s where I know you from” moment: reading the 28-June cover story in Seven Days (“Bombs Away” by Cathy Resmer), I get to this passage: Why would he want to live in an underground missile facility? “Who wouldn’t?” asks the cheeky Aussie. “The cool factor is just unbelievable.” Michael spends six weeks each […]
Damn but Flickr is fast… Caught a plug on B^2 yesterday for a Flickr pool called “Stick Figures In Peril” and decided to add my shot (above) of the sledders’ warning sign at Hubbard Park. A few hours later, it became my second most viewed photo. Neat. currently playing: Liz Phair “Divorce Song”
A. & I hit Wrightsville Reservoir today. I think this was our third time paddling there but the first time we managed to find our way down to the waterfall…: See the whole set in my Flickr stream… Honorary mentions that didn’t make the highlight reel: my pseudo-panoramic of the falls and our “vessel inspection” […]
Via 802 Online: You look familiar… MySpace!? Normally this would be a relief because I hate people and don’t want to meet 99.9% them. But this is the second time I’ve seen someone from MySpace I actually wanted to meet but was baffled by what sort of etiquette might govern the situation and was nowhere […]
Yes. That is my cat. My cat licking the wooden banister. No. I don’t understand it either. currently playing: fleep… “Three By Four”
First and foremost: A. & I will have a place to live! Our offer was accepted and the wheels are in motion to move back to Burlington. We’ll miss Barre. We will not miss our commutes. Despite the excitement, we kept it pretty chill tonight. A quick trip out for a celebratory dessert and then […]
As we’d made an offer on a place Wednesday afternoon and it was good through noon Friday (today)… A. & I are on the proverbial pins & needles plan waiting to hear back. The suspense is truly like a scraper on my stomach lining. Less than three official on-the-record hours to go.
