wish I could have made it
I should have tried to make it to Stratham after finishing my last NE 4k after 25 years, but the weather was too nice and I ended up hiking around Portland all day. Did enjoy getting my patch earlier in the week and look forward to getting my scroll. I wonder how...
meet for the Boston show Tuesday night
I'll be going to the Davis Sq. BFF Tuesday night show and possibly be interested in meeting up with some folks in the area before or after the show for a drink, maybe at the Burren or Redbones. Let me know if anyone is interested.

Long Trail hike
Although I only did the first 100 miles from the Mass line to Killington two summers ago in late July / early August, I can say that the weather conditions were excellent and the bugs were very few. Some of the places I really loved were Stratton Pond, Little Rock Pond and...
Loved the part of the movie about having a song running through his head while he was so exhausted and dehydrated. Reminded me of thinking about strange songs while thru hiking that I never would think of normally while being very tired and hungry..

Finishing the NE 4000'ers this year and the Appalachian Trail last year both on Mount Katahdin on clear days (Baxter and Hamlin peaks) will make that my favorite mountain forever. That doesn't even account for the Knife Edge, which is one of the best hiking spots in the...

NE 4000'ers
After 25 years of hiking the NH and NE 4000'ers, I will finally be finishing my New England 4k'ers on Hamlin Peak of Katahdin on Sept. 18th and celebrating in Millinocket.
Wish I could celebrate at Woodstock Station with other 4k'ers as I have in the past, but that is a little too...
While hiking with a bionic leg is impressive, I hiked last year with a man, Healer, who had the worst case of Multiple Sclerosis that I had ever seen. He had almost no vision and could feel almost nothing, but he ended up finishing the whole trail in a fairly fast time of 5 months.
Banff Film Festival
I have been going to this event in Somerville both nights for a couple of years. I can say that the mixture of films is always interesting. I think the movies I saw about the unicycler going up the volcano in Mexico was strange, BASE jumping stranger, but movies about things...
