The Red and other happenings



I've always connected to the song So Many Roads by the Grateful Dead. I driven many roads to "soothe my soul." In fact, I know of only one other person who drives more than I do. Right now I'm about to go down another road, 15 hours away, to the Red River Gorge. A place that is certain to benefit the soul. Naomi and I had planned on going to the New River Gorge in West Virginia but then changed our plans when we found that there was 6 inches of snow on the ground  there. I've never been to the Red and I'm psyched to check it out. I'm also looking forward to experiencing Miguel's famous Thanksgiving dinner. Yeah boy!

I've slowly been coming to grips with the fact that winter is upon us in the Northeast and although I am psyched for the ice and mixed game, I also psyched on getting out to Rumney and Bolton on the sunny warm days. Naomi and I headed down to Rumney last weekend to climb on Sunday and to hang out with Jay & Leesa and Jay & Kayte. Jay and Leesa just go a new puppy so we were psyched to meet him.

Naomi had some good goes on Peanut Man and I did some laps for endurance. I'll need it! Anyway. Off to the Red now. I'll be posting more about my adventures on here for those who care to read.
