Indoor honey farm

I would really like to have a fancy indoor honey farm like this one.
It's really fun to watch.

me too as long AS someone else harvests the honey and makes damn sure the bees don't get out.

That is soo cool! Please tell me that you traveled to this special place?! This is not like in your apartment, right?!
Bees are cool to watch, but I do not know how people can actually work with them. One of the books I read has a honey colony on the property. Gail Fraser's books about Lumby. An imaginary community which their own farm is modeled on in Upstate New York.

Sliding down a mountain

Skilift is kinda shaky. At the end you ride down in a sled. How
awesome is that. I wonder why none of our WNY ski resorts add
something like this. You can go really freakin fast.

Wooo!! They have one of those in Rotorua in New Zealand. Seriously fun - the one there has some sharp-ish drops that you can get decent air off if you go quick enough.

More places need stuff like this.

that seriously looks like the most fun ever!!! they have those in CO, and i think all the way upstate near canada at the skit resorts there... was there an olympics there once?

Buffalo Bobsledding. "Sanka, ya dead yet?"

That is so cool! It's just like the Jamaican luge team's practice area!

I went on something similar at a resort in Collingwood Ontario, it is an absolute blast. It does make wonder why Holiday Valley hasn't taken the plunge.

I just try to remember those who are experienceing severe drought, or typhoons. having so much rain sucks, but it could always be worse.

That wasn't fog, that wad haze. The super heat and the super humidity is fogging out the sun like a lid over steamed cauliflower.

HEHEHEHE....
Its excellent in Buffalo right now and will be throughout this weekend. (This morning was super foggy though. What was up with that? It was bizarrely spooky at around 5:40 AM)

I already miss the island

We decided to head south to the ledges but unfortunately we hit a one
day bad weather patch which trapped us in a motel for today ;(

lilho - 08/13/09 12:03

james - 08/13/09 07:58
Then you shouldn't have signaled for help with that coconut radio, Professor.
