Back up?

Well, today I have good news to post. In fact it's very good. I just got my acceptance letter from St. Anselm and Hartwick College. So that leaves me with a choice, at least. The other good news is that we managed to buy a new car with the insurance money. Guess what? It's a crown vic with about the same mileage and a better interior then the last one. I just couldn't resist a crown vic. They are such good and safe cars.

With that I've also managed to afford alot of the gear that I needed for the trip. I had alot of gear before but it's a little out dated and some of it is not the best. So a special thanks to all who helped make this possible either through money or gift cards.

Lastly, My friend Nick and I are planning a backpacking trip to Bear Mtn sometime this month. Bear Mtn is a nice area and thanks to the Big Man I know the area pretty well. We also planned a multi-day trip that combines our Bear Mtn trip and our Mt. Race trip. Hopefully, we can get out a couple of times over the next couple of months. I'd like to try some new areas that I haven't been to yet. Not to mention I'm feeling sick due to the fact that I haven't been hiking in such a long time.

That's all for now. I hope all of your lives are working out too. Catch ya on the flip side.
