One of the things that I've been missing while in school has been ventures into places that are less traveled. It's nice to get out and see the world that isn't filled with people rushing around like chickens without that vital organ.
Every once in a while I get the chance to head up to Londonderry, VT and help out a good friend with her computer. She's very patient with me, I think I probably cause more problems then I fix...but she says that I fix her problems and make her life better. See she has the right idea, nice office space with a beautiful view overlooking the woods surrounding Bromley, Mt. She works remotely most of the time, and heads to NYC when needed. Anyway, I digress. So I got the chance to head up and help her out. Just a couple days prior I invested in a wonderful guide, AMC's Quiet Water, so I looked up lakes that were local to Londonderry figuring that I would just take along the kayak and paddle around for a couple hours after working. Lowell Lake happened to be just down the road from where I was going to be. It took me about 1.5 hours to paddle around the entire lake, granted I was taking my time. Here's the count on what I saw in those two hours;
4 Beaver
11 or 12 Beaver Huts
1 Blue Heron
3 Guys (Rather large I might add), Fishing from what looked like a paddle boat with a trolling motor
Good times were had. If you're in the area, I would suggest checking it out.

Wow, so much to write about since my last post. I'm sorry to keep all of you waiting, I'm sure that you've missed me terribly.......Yeah Right!!!
Well it's official....I graduated with a Bachelor of Science degree in Computer Systems Engineering on June 24th. Aren't you all so proud of me? This is a very exciting milestone for me, one that makes me both happy and sad. This stage is complete, which is great, but all the people that I've met and spent every day with, will be missed terribly. I'm very excited for the change though, and to finally be making some money. In addition I've put off some of my dreams until this stage of my life, and now I will be able to take some of them on. Flying is one of the major ones and I will keep all of you up to date on advances in that path.
As of right now I haven't started work yet, in fact we still haven't moved yet either. I will be starting my new job in mid-July and will give you all updates on that when the time comes.
This past month has been quite relaxing and has given me a chance to get some things done that I've been meaning to do for a while. I'm working on refinishing our dining room table, pictures to come later, I'm done some kayaking, pictures to come later, and soon I will start packing and getting ready for the move, probably won't take pictures of that though. So I guess the bottom line is that I'm doing pretty well. I can't believe how fast time goes by when you're having fun though, it really is rather depressing in that regard.
Well I will hopefully get a couple more posts up soon, I have some trips and events that I want to share with all of you and I guess this is the best medium for mass distribution.
You've all be drinking your milk right?
