End of 2010 ski trip

admin — Sun, 09 Jan 2011 01:56:13 +0000

Happy new year to all and I hope it was a good one. Luckily my son and I were able to head up to the mountains for the last week of 2010 and do some nice skiing. We had a blast but man are my legs wiped out. I plan to do a lot more this winter as I just stocked up on new ski’s and they really feal great. My son kept me busy on the black diamonds, I am proud of him at 10 he is fearless. Soon he will be hitting the jumps with his dad but I tend to be a bit reckless so I need to stress safety. Happy new year all!

Happy Holidays, it’s almost Christmas!

Its almost time! 4 days until Christmas and I am ready for a great holiday. The whole family will all have new Ski Equipment so come monday, we will be on the slopes. I plan to hit the trails a lot this year, I nead to keep up with my son on the double diamonds. Last year I started on the “park” trails and hitting the rails, jumps and all the stunts, lots of wipeouts but lots of fun and I am ready for it again. Happy holidays to all!

Well I hope everyone had a happy and safe halloween. We had a great turnout, with lots of trick or treaters comming up until about 9pm! My son really enjoyed it, when he was done trick or treating he was in charge of handing out candy and also working our fog machine as people approached our door. So our next holiday is Thanksgiving and I added a countdown clock over on the right so let the games begin, soon Christmas will be approaching, I already see the stuff in stores.

Halloween is comming! Check the countdown.

So you can see on the right I have added a clock for a countdown to halloween. Can you believe it’s so close? What are you going to be ? I am still trying to decide on my costume and will make sure I post
pictures when I get it.

So I have decided that after every holiday, I am going to update that box on the upper right with a countdown to the next holiday.
So after Halloween we will be counting down to Thanksgiving.
Wow, the time sure does go fast

I guess vacations have to end, otherwise how would I plan my next one! I am back in south jersey after a nice 7-8 days away. Virginia Beach sure is nice, and with the weather being nice and sunny, we spent a good amount of time in the ocean. 80 degree water, dolphins swimming right near the shore, its was awesome! Got some nice Golf in, gained about 15 lbs from all the great food and had a lot of cold brew! But, its time to get back to work and in south jersey, we are all about work work work, and fun fun fun!!! I guess, at least thats what I think today! We almost are ready for our “Artist of the Month” to go live! We have posted about this on a lot of websites including craigslist in south jersey, but incase you missed it, still time to apply to be spotlighted as one of South Jersey’s Artists of the month!

Hey everyone, day 2 in Virginia and its nice and sunny, swimming in the pool, watching golf on TV and planning our trip to the beach in a few days. I still miss south jersey and hope you all are doing well. I have told a lot of people about south jersey and how nice it is! My brother in laws are planning to come up and visit to catch a phillies game which is always a great time. Most of us in south jersey root for the Philadelphia Phillies and Eagles! Tonight is the 1st pre-season game, so I will be checking in with my friends in New Jersey to see who they think will win. Enjoy your day folks.
Naval Air Station Oceana is right here http://www.mybaseguide.com/navy/oceana/

Happy Friday!

Its friday, what else can I say?? Maverik went to the groomer today and looks great, nice short hair, we were able to get a new remote for the TV that he chewed up and I even programmed it right.

It’s super hot outside today, I think some rain is coming but it doesn’t matter, I still love fridays. Hopefully, saturday’s weather is good and we get a nice helicopter ride in, look for the pics soon after! Have a safe and happy weekend everyone and remember “Rock n Role ain’t noise pollution”

Weekend

Sheky — Mon, 22 Jun 2009 20:06:33 +0000

So I had a somewhat eventful weekend. Spent some time traveling the Delsea Drive, a.k.a. Route 47 on Friday en route to play golf with my father and two brothers. Of course I forgot my camera, generously donated to me by mis amigos, gracias! Now if we are to believe the NJ Department of Transportation this, the longest state road in New Jersey, has only three taffic cameras.

We all got together last summer to play and that was the first time I had played since the early nineties when I lived in a house adjacent to the University of Maryland golf course in College Park, MD. Another story altogether. Anyway, this was the second time in so many years and alot of fun. The highlight for me, aside from getting to spend time with my family and of course hacking my way out of multiple sand traps, was the eerily motionless black snake, the frog, trees, sky, sounds and wild turkey who I crossed paths with. (Thanks Jim for the pic, like I said I forgot my camera.)

On a rainy Saturday morning I brewed a potent pot of coffee and shovelled the laundry around. Then brought a bookcase up from the basement and spent the next two hours not putting anything on it. Sandwiched in between the walking of friends’ dogs, my son and I went to my niece’s graduation party. Congratulations Kate!

Saturday night we brainstormed, but my brain was flooded. nice to see everyone though.

Early Sunday morning of course was the summer soltice which I marked by reveling in a semi – dream state marked by an imagined (?) parade of curiosities. And then later was reminded on father’s day that for the most part I’m not as interesting as The Legendary Starfy
