The ski’s have been busy during the past month doing this and doing that and we apologize to our many loyal readers about our lack of posts lately. With that said, here are a few highlights:
- Went camping up in Burlington Vermont. Spent the weekend with a bunch of friends camping, hanging out at the beach (Lake Champlain), kayaking, playing warshers, jamming on the guitars and bbqing. Good times were a had. Especially when our drunk neighbor came over to our site and began impersonating “Popeye.” Unbelievable.
- Went to a JJ Grey and Mofro concert up in Burlington the same weekend we went camping. Great concert. You should really check them out.
- Celebrated my buddies 30th bday at the swankiest bar in town – Alibi
- The better half has improved drastically on her guitar skills. Curfew is still on effect. After 11pm I hide the darn thing.
- Picked up V.I.P. tickets to Farm Aid. They are coming to town in September. Gonna be awesome!
- Watched a gazillion episodes of Battlestar Galactica. For someone who isn’t known to be into Sci Fi, this show is addicting for some random reason.
- Took in the movie Dark Knight and absolutely loved it. Great movie. Christian Bale is the best Batman yet. The movie is much more realistic than those silly past movie’s with Kilmer, Clooney, and Keaton. To read a good movie review, take a look here.
- Went to Dave and Busters with this guy and played the arcade version of trivia pursuit for almost three hours. Won basically three million tickets. So many tickets that after picking up beer mugs, soccer balls, candy, a toaster oven, a playing card shuffler, coffee mugs, a blender and an inflatable giant hammer balloon (all mentioned items with the Dave and Busters Logo on them) we still have one million tickets left to spend on senseless items. (Oh and I wasn’t able to use the hammer balloon on my wife because of the repeated use on the civil servant during the ride home.)
- Picked out a new pair of glasses from Lens Crafters. Between the superior service Lens Crafters employees provided and my indecisiveness on what type of frame to pick made this an enjoyable experience. You should just ask my better half.
And that wraps up the past two weeks.
