skip-a-beat

This time of year is usually filled with the stress of starting back up with the second semester. That is, unless you have a whopper of a snow storm usher in what's essentially an unexpected six-day weekend. We didn't know what days we had off from teaching until the last minute. And of course there was half a foot of snow, which kept us close to home. But we still got out...

Beyond enjoying the snowbound peacefulness, we got to explore the undeveloped western half of NC's largest state park. Uwharrie and I investigated the uncharted yellow blazes on Camp Grier property. And MST planning and preparation continued. A 5.5 oz. 3-in-1 splash bivy was designed and built to replace my trusty 11 oz. 2-in-1 BMT bivy. I plan to post more on the gear soon. Also, I've been busy compiling useful trail data and posting it here.

Now it's off to Saturday school, manana...
