Cutting corners

[The EndlessTrail » Wondering, as I walk on the endless trail of life, who will I bump into today] So, after work, I headed back to my old school - Singapore Polytechnic - for some climbing. It’s been a long time since I last climbed there, with the very last time being many months back.

Another Nike Run Success

[\jeff{krimmel}] Another installment of the Nike run series took place this evening, and I again was able to successfully complete the three mile run in the eleven to eleven and a half minute per mile pace group. In fact, I was feeling good enough near the end of the run that I beat the rest of the group back to the starting area (where the three and five mile routes finish).

workout log: 18 june 2005

[randomduck] We also saw some box turtles sunning and swimming in the canal (though the swimmers weren’t into the whole picture-taking thing). We saw Canada geese with their rapidly-maturing goslings, some ducks (a whistling variety), and - much to our surprise - a white-tailed deer fawn.

Abalone diving

[Automatt] Large mollusks you can eat, originally uploaded by automatt. Along the California coast, it's possible to dive for these large bivalves. A little slicing and pounding and they're ready to cook! Due to strict, enforced limits on the harvest, this practice is both sustainable and incredibly fun!

The Bloom Report

[Metroblogging Seattle] Such as Lake Washington around Foster Island, judging from the bumper crop of white blobs I see from the 520 bridge. I'm pretty certain there's at least twice as many there this year as there was last year.

Hot Stuff

[greaterfalls.com] Well, the mercury finally cracked the 75 degree mark in Great Falls yesterday. I know that’s probably very nice for most folks, but it makes me a little sad (in a way) to know that Summer has arrived.

What a week!

[Campfire Cooking] Wow”¦ last week is finally behind me. It was truly crazy”¦ We had a camp out with Crew 90 at Cape Henlopen the week end before, then Mason’s Graduation on Tuesday, Mason’s Eagle Scout Ceremony on Thursday, and then a campout this past weekend with Troop 90 in Mexico, PA and then another Eagle Scout Ceremony for another boy in the Troop on Sunday Night. Mason and his friends left for their big adventure in the Williamsburg, VA area at 3:30 AM yesterday.

The Nike Run, Part 2

Run for the Mountains

[:::[ patchwork progression ]:::] Arriving home late last night, I could not shake an unusual sense that my apartment was eerily empty and yet in being so unmasking an ominous, unseen presence. I paced around in the dark until flashing lights from the street below intruded through the blinds.

Camping in Tellico

[Blogging Riverbend Festival] I'm going to talk about my Memorial Day weekend because it was so great. First off it was Roxie's idea to go camping and I applaud her for such a wonderful idea. I decided that Merlaak should be the one to decide where we were going to stay because I had a rather busy week and he really wanted to try out his all-in-one super cooker. The super cooker is electric so we needed reservations at a campground with electricity (imagine that).

Summer Weekends: Forever in a Day

PNW Flying group's ace pilot David Herman made room for you in his two-seater Cessna for his tenth trip around the horn. Now Eastside Photography group's organizer John Wilbanks immortalizes that moment-by-moment beauty that is our state.

Weekend Crammed Packed with stuff

[Campfire Cooking] Saturday morning started out as cool, cloudy, and misty”¦ not the most pleasant of weather to go to the beach. When we paid our final registration, we found out that the park was hosting some National Trails Day activities and we were invited to participate. After breakfast, we stopped by and they put us right to work.

Caringorms Planning Objection

[foolfillment] These pylons are planned start on the coast line by the western isles, head west then south through some of the most beautiful places in Scotland, before diving into the national grid around Stirling. They are three or four times the size of existing pylons (where there are existing pylons, that is) and are needed to bring in wind farm power from the western isles. he phrase I’ve heard that is most evocative (I think from Cameron McNeish) is ‘akin to taking a stanley knife to a Rembrandt’.

FirstSignsOfSummerBeingCloseBy

[Shhh] My yearly notible signs that summer is close by: dandilions are in abundance, wasps seem to find a way to the inside of my house windows, the warmer days are so nice that I open the windows and usually miss closing one at bed time then wake up around 4 am freezin my ass off, (...) But, then again, summer is great and sure beats the heck outta shoveling a dump load of snow!

Fighting the good fight

[Metroblogging Seattle] For years I would tell people that I had a brown thumb, but in fact I actually have a green thumb and a forest of blackberry vines in my backyard in support of this statement. Blackberry is always so contradictory, with half of us trying to pound it out of existence and the other half out on the roadside, not 5 feet from cars driving by (can I get a chorus of "ewwww" please?) harvesting its sweet berry goodness. On Thursday I accepted the City of Bellevue's invitation to attend their FREE weed workshop and for over an hour, Laurie and Sasha held a lively lecture about what weeds would be around in my neck of the woods, and how best to get rid of them.

[randomduck] Pleasant Festival, where we ate good pizza and bought a Weber Smoky Joe BBQ (I rode back from Mt. Pleasant - all 1.5 miles - with the grill slung under one arm). The ride on the C&O was great, though, and we stopped often to marvel at the wildlife: Canada geese with goslings, ducks with ducklings, big and little turtles swimming and sunning, small bass and big carp.

Gunung Stong Revisited.

[The EndlessTrail » Wondering, as I walk on the endless trail of life, who will I bump into today] We had a simple lunch at the Stong Waterfall Resort before beginning our two and a half hour trek up 450m to the campsite. I know that I’ve not trekked for a very long time when muscles started to protest. Especially the upper thigh muscles, which were not used to the waist loop of my backpack.

Bill Hall hike Day 3

[Ramblings and Travels] On day 3 of our hike down the Bill Hall trail, we crossed Surprise Valley from Thunder River to Deer Creek. We got a late start, around 6:30am, and the sun was already warm in the sky.

Grand Canyon Hike: Day 2

[Ramblings and Travels] It then cascaded down a 30 to 45 degree hillside for a half mile, until it hit Tapeats Creek. I wish my leg was feeling up to it, I would of enjoyed the hike down to Tapeats and see it all there, but the trail was too steep and rough, and I didn’t want to risk aggrivating my leg any more than I already had.

The Nike Run

[\jeff{krimmel}] Ariele rounded up quite a crew (of which I was a member) to go to this evening’s Nike run, and I have declared it an unequivocal success. Ariele, Bert, and Mike ran in the nine to nine and a half minute per mile pace group for a total of three miles, while Greg, Heather, and I joined the walking group for the same three mile route. Waiting at the end was free food and free beer (two free beers for me, since Ariele isn’t such a fan).

News Roundup

[The Disney Blog] There is also news on the Pixar and Disney relationship. Incumbent CEO Iger reports they are back at the table again. This relationship has proven to be profitable for both sides and I don't think one should under estimate the branding power of having all your characters associated with one themepark giant.
