Stories, thoughts and reflections from my life.

I'm a climber, skier, hiker, and biker...among other things. I believe that communing with the outdoors can give us incredible insight into our lives, build friendships that last a lifetime, and open our eyes to the larger world around us. This is my blog. Welcome.

Christmas Day Fun

-Day 25 of 31-

Amazingly, my nieces held off on waking me up until 0630. Exceedingly difficult I know. A few hours later and we had a couple trash bags full of wrapping paper and some very happy young ladies. I was quite pleased that I was able to snag both of them a sweet pair of ski gloves at the Outdoor Gear X in Burlington (and a "gift" or two to myself...more on that later). But the best present goes to my sister from my dad. He somehow dug up her old Michael Jackson Thriller LP...wow.

Bubble lights!

-Day 19 of 31-

I love bubble lights.  I have no idea how they really work, nor do I want to...I think it would ruin the magic.  When I was a kid, I'm sure my dad would've told me, "Well, there's a little man in there and...".  Something like that.
