frozen feet, bruised thumb, mix tapes, logan's run, a couch snuggle, and wham city

winter camping 08, in Deerfield Park, Mt. Pleasant, Michigan with some friends, one night only. It was a really good time of just sitting around the fire talking and drinking tea and rum and then doing calisthenics to warm up. I had no winter boots, which was a little uncomfortable but not so bad. mickey had the good idea to remove his socks and roast them over the fire to dry them out, i did the same. at night i had a toasty nalgene in my sleeping bag, followed by a big breakfast at lil'chef the next morning.

experimenting with my tripod/headlamp around the campfire.
i also grew out my beard for the first time , ever, as you may have noticed . here is the mustache which remained for 5 minutes after i shaved. i thought i looked like a frenchmen for some reason.aaron, heather, and i have been working for weeks and weeks (partially procrastination) on a package for our friends (nate & ellie) who live out in Massachusetts. i recently purchased a tape deck from the st. vincent depaul thrift store (which is my favorite thrift store in grand rapids for electronics, they do repairs on donated electronics and get them running again). anyways, i made a mix tape for nate & ellie:
this past week i was introduced to an old movie called Logan's Run. it's pretty great, and stars Michael York (who played Q from Austin Powers) and Farrah Fawcett (before she was famous). And as for new music, check out Wham City by Dan Deacon.

phew, that looks good now, what with Deerfield Park all accurate. Man,
we sure did hang out this morning. How dare you stay up late and even think about coming into your room to sleep or read. You should be ashamed, I am.
