And then I got sick for two weeks...

Being sick has got to be one of the most frustrating wastes of time I can think of. I knew I was getting sick the morning I woke up. There was a dull ache in my lungs and yellow lugis, then it went to my nose and I spent a lot of time on the couch hacking and blowing snot rockets. Not pretty.

Sometimes its nice to just wear running shoes and go play in the woods.

The Coolest Bench I've Sat on For a Long Time

Sometimes when its nice out and I don't really feel like getting a lot of exercise I'll take my book to somewhere pretty and be lazy. The Turnagain Arm Trail has been a favorite this spring for "runs", but I've never walked it. Turns out I missed this bench because it was just a little off the trail. It was built by an Eagle Scout.

Turnagain Arm Trail and Tales of Woe

I don't look very woeful in the picture below, but believe me I was. I was supposed to be in Valdez skiing and climbing, and instead I was all alone without my friends or skis or climbing gear. What had seemed like a brilliant move to have Ryan take my gear down since he was driving, turned bad when my flight got canceled. Darn it! Foiled!
