Winter Hiking

It’s really tempting to sleep in tomorrow morning. A cold rainy.. and up on the lake snowy morning awaits me. The price you pay to thin the herd I suppose. I’m looking forward to visiting Lake Serene and perhaps we’ll bag a peak if we have the energy for another hour and a half..

My electronics projects have really taken a stand still. I’ve gotten just enough everything I need in to create a CNC mill to mill some PCBs but life has been really needy! Hopefully I’ll build that shortly.

Dear Future Me: .223 ammo is $900/1000rounds. I hope I made the right choice to pass for the day it’s back at a sane value…

2013 Hiking Progress

With this morning’s ascent up Squak Mountain I’ve reached 33% of my mileage goal for the year and we’re 25% through the year. Elevation and number of hikes are flying by in comparison… Guess my goals were lopsided. I shared the trail with runners and unleashed dogs in masses. It was only about 1,600 ft of elevation gain but I wanted to ease myself back in after a few week break. Ill be paying for my jog down tomorrow I imagine… Old knees! I think the west peak was the likely point I should’ve headed for but I could t resist the chimney and keeping it to a loop. Too bad I missed the old mill. I love checking out old buildings… Who doesn’t though?
