Buddy's Ramblings


July 7, 2010: Had a good long weekend! Happy belated Canada Day and Happy belated 4th of July!
BBQ, multi-pitch climbing @ Lover's Leap, bocce ball, sushi (x2), Dave and Buster's, Avatar: The Last Airbender (boo)... busy long weekend, now it's time to sleep!
Except for tonight, which will involve swing dancing (first time in a long time)!

June 29, 2010: Only took forever, but here's my pictures from the Red River Gorge climbing trip!
In other exciting news, was in DC a couple weekends ago for Charlene's friend's wedding. It was a great trip! My first time in the DC area and we did lots of touristy stuff:
  • Luray Caverns was super awesome! It blows my mind how old these things are..
  • Steph's wedding -- really fun!
  • hiking Stony Man and a portion of the AT
  • waterfront by Georgetown
  • Washington Monument, Lincoln Memorial, war memorials (very touching with the Father's Day cards..)
  • Air and Space museum, Natural History museum
  • Old Post Office
  • view of the White House
Also had dinner with my uncle and his family whom I haven't seen in something like 13 years!! Good to see them again (and one of them for the first time). I'll try to put up pictures from my trip quicker than those RRG ones, but no promises!

June 13, 2010: From my friend's facebook status:
What do I like best about blaming BP? I can do it and feel morally superior and then immediately go back to driving my car, buying things with more packaging than product, and funneling my paycheck into whichever companies cut corners enough to bring their prices down to levels I consider acceptable.
Heh, so true!

June 9, 2010: Went to Yosemite again this past weekend! Did some short hike (a self-guided tour from the village, to the meadow, to Serenity Bridge and back to the valley), saw Ron Kauk talk and show a video, did some easy rock climbing... fun as usual!
I should really buy a new camera soon, then I can take (and put up) awesome pictures once again...

May 28, 2010: Wow another birthday come and gone! Still in the "early 30's" though. ;)
Events since my last update include:
  • vegan cupcake party
  • geocaching
  • Iron Man 2
  • a nice outdoor wedding
  • How to Train Your Dragon (in 3D)
  • wine tasting
  • Maker Faire
  • outdoor climbing/bouldering at Ring Mountain
And tonight I'm going to see Flight of the Conchords!!! woohoo!
As for the long weekend coming up, not too sure yet. Guess I'll fly this one by the seat of my pants...
