That's funny dayhiker, because this year's Association for Preservation Technology conference is also going to be in Puerto Rico. Unfortunately I won't be going because my company will only cover the cost of the conference and not the cost of the plane ticket and hotel room.

lumber - the airfare wasn't too bad. Don't know about the hotel rates. The first night we're staying an San Juan and it was about like stateside. Just look at it like a vacation and go for it.

Tonight
Back to School Night. I have to make a brief speech welcoming families back on behalf of the school's board of directors.

Saturday
B-Son's soccer game, 8 AM.

Picking up a buddy in the City and heading down to the Stanford-TCU game - it's Homecoming/Class Reunion weekend, so I'll probably bump into people from class years near mine.

Dinner with B-Son's soccer coach and teammate to thank us for bringing the teammate with us back from visiting his grandparents in France.

Sunday
20-25 mile bike ride in hills w/BowlderGal and maybe BowlderSon.

Connect backyard sprinklers to newly installed water service line - check to make sure sprinkler heads don't explode with increased pressure.

Car maintenance (replace various filters, etc.) on Forester - overdue for 90,000 mile service (doing it myself this time to save $$).

Cousin and husband coming for dinner. Must introduce the husband to concept of lawn mower, since they just bought a house that has a small yard. He's not real handy.

I wanted to try and get out early morning up around Pisgah Forest...to capture some fall colors etc....BUT...the boss has decided that we need to work (Tax deadline 10/15) BUT he doesn't want us to come in until 2...so I may get out still but who knows. They day is still young!!!

Hi Pamela. How are you doing?

Playing carpenter for the family. Gotta install a new frame for the service door in my parents garage, then some caulking at my place before the real cold weather hits. I'm trying to save heat any where I can. After that it'll be cleaning the bathrooms, moping... same ol' weekend stuff. Maybe me and the girls will go to the park Monday afternoon for a couple hours if I'm lucky.

Speaking of that, I just watched this: http://www.breitbart.tv/html/7530.html

I agree that it should be legal. I just don't like how he acts like there are no negatives.

Now ... going to take my wife to the new Wegman's in the area. She's never been. Later.

Rather strange! It was clear and looked refreshing. I kept feeling the need to filter but it was just a dayhike, so I resisted. I even slipped off a rock on a stream crossing and dunked my foot. Not used to wet stream crossings any more I guess.

Must... fight... urge... to filter... water!

Okay, Sarge, you took the high road so I'll give it a try myself. I apologize for making the comment about your wife. Sincerely. Whatever reason I thought I had for the comment is inadequate. I am sorry for whatever pain it may have caused you.

i ended up back in the burned areas of westwood rancho bernardo handing out flyers with BrianSean. we were in the worst parts this time. not pretty at all. it does make you realize how married we are to our things though, i am still sorting through and throwing stuff out.

No pain Nimblefoot, but I do accept your apology and share the blame in that I shouldn't have played along in this case where the intent wasn't in good fun. I look forward to a fresh start.

Jerks, you know what I get to do this weekend... I get to sit here in front of this stupid computer doing homework then I get to sit over some stupid books and study for three finals and then if I am really lucky and get all of that done I get to go out to murtaugh and do work on the house we are building out there. you know it is for these same reasons that I did not go hunting at all this year, went fishing ONCE, and camping ONCE, but on a better note I will soon be going snowboarding 'cause I just bought a snowboard, and I am not going to school next semester. +peace all

Well, gee wilikers. Everyone has got an action packed schedule. I guess it is that time of the year.

I will be:

a) drinking beer
b) brewing beer
c) eating fattening foods
d) drinking wassal
e) finishing Christmas shopping
f) sleeping in
g) taking at least one 50 mile bike ride


Not necessarily in that order or only once...
