Title...

Man. Derrick titled his blog "My Cornhole Rocks Back and Forth" and I guess it made me remember how old me blog is and what was going through my head when I titled it. Weird. Not really much to elaborate on 'cept... Weird.

Anyway... Vicky, Heather and I went camping this weekend and it was awesome. We kayaked (sp?) and rafted and hiked and slept... very much freezing was the sleeping. But it was a great time. We drove about 5 hrs north into upper Wisconsin and even ended up in Michigan (the UP, anyway) at one very misdirected point. I'll have pics up on the FaceBook soon and I'll link to them here. I'm planning on putting together a little video for the three of us and Blaszczyk as well, since it kinda was HIS trip despite the fact that he McDonald'sed on us.

The first night, we attempted to grill some burgers, but kinda failed because the burgers decided to going for a fly when Heather hastily opened the package. We lost two and injured one. The injured one ended up on the grill and broke apart into many little pieces so we only had three left on the grill. Heather was flipping them and then decided one of them needed to taste like the ground and pine needles so she flipped it off the grill. Oh man. It was very nearly hilarious.

The next morning we kayaked and that was the highlight of the trip for me. Afterwards, we had a couple hours to make some lunch and chill out. Then we headed north to go rafting. Three hours of floating and about one hour of intense rafting. SO intense and awesome that we all got thrown out of the raft and then tried again. That night we chilled, ate out (due to our tragic burgers) and drank some Bacardi Melon. Oh man. Good times. Vicky and I tipsilly chilled ontop of my car and watched the stars which actually exist up there! I love Chicago, but it for sure lacks the concept of there being anything in space.

Sunday was nothing but go home day, so we made a day of it before... going home. We hiked over to a spot near the rapids and we swam for a little while and took many pictures and videos. We broke down the GIANT TEN-PERSON tent, packed up and left for home...

All in all, it was a wonderful weekend... And now here I am AT WORK. That's right, I seem to have a job all of a sudden. I'm answering phones @ K&P for the next week or so, and probably for the near future. This probably means I'll be updating this thing a bit more often.
