I look pretty good if you're drunk or the lighting is dim. I can't wait until FFS next year.

Woke up at 4 AM to do some hiking. Did not disappoint, and I still have the afternoon!

In the 1960s, hurricanes were given women's names exclusively. Obviously, men started calling hurricanes sluts.

In less than 3 months I went from a lifelong hater of winter to loving it. I went snowshoeing for the first time and walked across a frozen lake. I can't wait to go again.

I spent some time watching Canadian geese at the reservoir at sunset (on their way south for the winter). They mostly squawked at each other and made a ruckus about nothing. Lots of fun!
