Lake George

This weekend we rented a cabin with Lake George in it's backyard and had an amazing time. We took this trip with my sister, future bro-in-law and friends Aaron and Margaret. It was supposed to rain, but weather ended up being beautiful and we were able to hike like we had planned.
The biggest story from this trip was our hike... it wasn't exactly what we planned, but it was an amazing experience! The hike ended taking us about 4 1/2 hours during which we went up and down 2000 feet. The trail itself was pretty steep with rocks through it and quite the challenge. Willougby was the biggest surprise of all. He loved it and took off charging ahead of us. He was able to climb up the rocks with ease. He was really cold on the summit, but other than that we were all impressed. It was pretty funny seeing a poofy 10 pound dog turn into "mountain dog, discovering the peaks." Check out some of our pictures below.









Dibs


Tonight Dhrumi was watching football and eating Dibs. I had to share his
comment because it might make you want to try them...
"They’re refreshing… it’s like a snow party in my mouth"

The Reason for Kids

Ok this might be a strange thought, but I have been pondering it for a few days. Everything kids do are to create them to be adults... so is the whole purpose to become an adult? Now that I'm an adult, is my whole purpose to become an older adult? You get what I'm saying? A baby is born and from day 1 everything is done for its survival, for its behavioral development all to make it grow into a older person. A kid goes to school and participates in activities to become "something someday" I wonder if senior citizens think back on all of those things that shaped them and are happy with the results. I might be going around in circles so if none of this makes sense read below.

We haven't had hot water since Wed and I'm dirty! I had to boil water to wash... AHHH! :)

Bones




Here is the story of the day... after work I was walking Willougby and not really paying much attention. At one point on our walk Willougby stopped and would not come. I turned around to see why and I saw a bone sticking out of his mouth. This bone was nasty.... flesh and blood hanging off of it. Well I didn't want him to get sick and I grabbed hold of the bone before I knew how nasty it was. While screaming out of disgust (so loud the commuters walking home heard it through their ipods) I wrestled the bone out of his mouth. Once I finally got it out I screamed again because of the blood (or bbq sauce if it was a chicken leg) on my hand and tried not to puke. So that's my story... I still feel sick thinking of it. The question is... what was the bone?
