Camping at East Otto State Forest

From Friday until this morning, we went camping with Jeremy in the East Otto State forest. There you can camp in one of twelve or so cleared camp spots, no reservation or fee needed.

" >(MAP TO:

)

It was hot as balls, almost 90 degrees and sunny. Luckily we were in a shady area. There was some water but for the most part it was swampy. Only two miles away was Zoar Valley, so if we go down here again I'd definitely go over and swim.

On Saturday night it poured and thunderstormed. Some quick scout thinking saved us with the tarp ((e:uchina)). I was actually scared of the lightning - it couldn't have striking been more than 1000 feet away.

Seneca Bluffs and Marinara's

Thursday night rides are my favorites.

We rode with Deacon, Robbob and Ashley down to the seneca bluffs at Seneca and the Buffalo River. It was a good night. We finished up with some pool at Marinara's.

Down on Seneca there is the Hahvahd of psychic schools. I wonder what tuition is.

Garden

(e:terry) and I worked on the garden for hours last Sunday and planted all of the botanical garden flowers we got.

It's like summer already. The backyard is a ton of work but I think I actually enjoyed it today. Call the gardening club, I'm an old man.

We were able to use a ton of our compost from the Farmer Pirates, who take our compost.

Skyride

Was awesome. We woke up at 8:30 (we were supposed to check in at 7:30), got to the park at 9, and rolled up just when the ride was leaving. Obviously if everyone did that it wouldn't work but it worked out for us.

The day before I volunteered and spray painted the markers on the road.

It was warm and not sunny. The ride was 26 miles long, and for the most part good.

I really hate the car culture slow rollers who stop at every stop sign and give way to every car. I'm not riding 26 miles with you clucking at me about yielding to cars, it's an event for building a bike culture.

View from the new Roswell building

The 9th floor of the new clinical science building has a pretty good view from the patio.

Too bad this is on the executive floor. I hope they let the patients up here.

Clean Air dinner

Last week was the clean air coalition dinner at the Hotel Lafayette. The Allen Street Consulting table went crazy with the raffle. (e:xandra) won an air purifier, we won the 50/50 and (e:Dianne) won a Coop gift certificate.

I love breadsticks.

Early mothers day at e:mike and e:libertad

We did mother's day early for Paul's mom since (e:mike) and (e:libertad) aren't here for this Sunday. We went to some seafoody restaurant in Hamburg called Lucia's on the lake.

I got to see some of the many napkin holders Mike and Dave bought.

And eat these amazing ice cream sandwiches (e:libertad) made.

and spent an hour talking about how we're all gonna die.

Stray guy :(

End of tax season party

We got (e:terry) back.

The only pictures I have of the party are the Newfie neighbor megafloofs and a drawing of the dog. The food was tasty and so is sleeping under (e:terry)'s desk.

Here's the flyer (e:xandra) came up with, pretty sweet.
