Killington Ski Trip
We left for Killington a little after 1pm on Sunday. I was a little excited as this was my first time going there, especially since Ali has always talked highly of this particular mountain. It was about a four hour drive from our house, and it was pretty uneventful being a Sunday afternoon and all. Harry got us a free condo sans sheets and towels. We later learned that the cleaning company does not provide these things for non-paying visitors. Apparently, the guy who lent it to us, rents it out during the season. Anyway, had we known this we could have brought our own, but I don’t think this was a clear point for any of the involved parties (including the cleaning/renting agency). They did end up bringing us sheets and towels Sunday evening, and all was well on … Read More »
The Producers
Ali and I went to The City yesterday to see The Producers on Broadway. Nathan Lane and Matthew Broderick have reprised their roles for a short time, and we were lucky enough to get tickets.
Ah, but I’m getting a head of myself …
This was our second time going to The City since we moved to New York last June. The first time we went was Thanksgiving weekend to meet Adam, who was in from Portland, Oregon. I’m not sure why we haven’t gone more as it only takes us about 3.5 hours with about 2 hours of that on a train. Needless to say for us to get to The City it is a piece of cake; contrasted with what Ashley went through to get there you might even think it boring.
One thing to offset the … Read More »
On Evansville
Hey y’all!
Not much to say this week. I’m still trying to recuperate from my trip to Evansville. I haven’t worked so hard in quite a while. I started by getting up at 2am Monday morning to make a 5am flight, and once arriving in Evansville I proceeded to work until 11pm Tuesday night with the bulk of Tuesday being spent in a small hut in Louisville, KY. I must say our hut is in a quite scary part of town, and that I didn’t enjoy spending time in it after dark. For those of you playing along at home, and don’t think you know what a telecom hut is, guess again. These are the smallish aggregate looking buildings (huts) usually seen on the side of the road near railroads tracks.
So the hut is located … Read More »
Heading to Indiana
Well I’m off to Evansville, IN next week. This came as a pleasant surprise, as I’ve been working on a large project for work, and I didn’t think the parts I needed would be in until later this month. I did some checking yesterday and found out everything had arrived, and so I bought my plane ticket. I am very happy because Ali, Harry, and I were planning to go to Okemo for a few days at the end of the month. My dilemma was this project was putting the trip in jeopardy for me, and I’m certain Ali and Harry would have had a great time with or without me. At least for the moment it all appears as if it is going to work out.
We have had constant snow (flurries at times, hard … Read More »
Pictures
I’ve posted additional pictures from Will’s birthday taken by Sarah (I think). If it wasn’t her or I’ve completely gotten the name wrong let me know and I’ll fix it.
Also, I’ve posted pictures from the Alabama and Indiana legs of my trip for those who are interested.
