Ridiculously orange hut we stayed in one night
Lunchbreak
Ahhh travelpod... I just wrote a whole entry and it got deleted...!Well, I'm feeling entirely way too lazy to retype everything so here's a brief summary: Random got a job at the outdoor too so now we never get paid... we just buy EVERYTHING we see... seriously, I think I make negative money there. But it's awesome... we work with great people and get to play with all sorts of toys. I've got a watch coming in two days that does everything- measures my heart rate, does calories, has a gps pod so it'll tell me exact distance I run and stuff... lots of
You know you want to visit now...
Seriously, you really want to visit
fun! Also, we get to demo everything, and man do we take advantage of that-this afternoon a bunch of us from the store are going mountain biking with the demo bikes so we can "know the gear better for the sake of the customers ;)" mmmm...! [edited to add: just finished mountain biking and of course I had to ride the $5000 dual suspension demo and fall in love with it... i think my next paycheck is going to be a bill]
This is so much steeper than it looks!
Like, really, so much steeper...
Other than that, we've been spending all of our free time playing ultimate frisbee and hiking. Last week we stayed in this amazingly orange hut on the edge of a cliff and spent the last hour of the hike scrambling up using tree roots and whatever else we could grab just to get up there... maaaan was the view worth it! Made me wonder how the hell they got the hut there in the first place but as soon as it started snowing at night I didn't really care how they did, I was just happy it was there. Anyways, the main point of this entry was just to upload some of the hiking pics to entice you guys to come and visit! Seriously, we have a couch and endless activities just minutes away from home and even if we're only sort of friends, you are more than invited to crash :)
Look how bad Random is at putting on sunscreen ;)
Soo, have a great day and come on over!!
