Besides going over to my mother's house this afternoon and taking part in the ceremonial turkey genocide, I'm planning on taking the dog on a short out-and-back on Friday(from VA 7 to Raven Rocks). The rest of the weekend shall be spent in various stages of hibernation and/or playing Call of Duty: Black Ops. I'm thinking of camping next weekend though.


You?

Last year, my wife did something that I plan to make a tradition every Black Friday. The wife will go shopping at her pace starting 8-9am. Myself and my 3.5 year-old will head to a local recreational area and explore, have a woods picnic, maybe build a fire and enjoy nature.

And this Sat., a buddy has invited me togo deer hunting and I plan to camp Sat. night to try out a new new and get more experience with my gear.

Bushwhack through the Adirondacks for a few days. With the weather system coming through, should be some nice cold weather to give my new winter UQ a run.

i will construct a work of art that will finaly bridge the chasim between mear art and weaponized art. and what do i mean by that pinky? the art i will release on the land shall cause babys to weep. old men to bow. stars to take note. the art of mine this day will be remembered as the shot that started the war of artworld with the "one". that is what they'll call me.
and how will you do that brain?
simple my dear pinky,.first ill use the artworld as a human sheild. then i was thinking of killing bad art with the scalpula. and then break the mona lisas neck.
and what about your handcuffed economic position brain?
oh you mean that?...i freed myself useing my own kidney.

sound of mona lisas neak breaking.....followed by sounds of large crowds chanting wildly,"the one!".. as mattys blobart is raised to the highest ramparts of the ruined city of artworld.

sunrise the next day(saturday)sleep in.

Went out to dinner on Thanksgiving Day... Have to work tomorrow. My Girlfriends ex-stepson is coming for the weekend so we may go do a day hike with on Saturday... With the poor weather up here in North Central Indiana right now, we don't want to bring a 10 year old with "poor" gear out... Sunday morning I'm tied up, but we may try another outdoor day at a local county park in the afternoon and before we have to send the 10 Year Old home...

Working today (Firefighter/Medic), so we hiked from Harpers Ferry, WV to Smithsburg, MD this past long weekend (approx. 33 miles), with some new gear. Everything went perfect, even with a brother with 3 fractured toes prior to the hike.
