Playlists to pass the days


I have grown addicted to listening to random playlists online at playlist.com with my free time (That I seem to have an abundance of recently). Please let me know any additions I should make to this one. It really has no theme to it so any track could be added. WARNING: Some Explicit Lyrics.

Halloween - Northern Virginia Style

In my constant pursuit of fun I shot up to Northern Virginia to visit some friends and by the look of things carve a pumpkin. (this took a whole 3 minutes to clean and carve in time for the trick-or-treaters.

This was the gang... the Mystery Gang


I brought the douchy-frat-boy out of retirement.


The night was an epic success and I actually survived the trip.


What a fun time... Happy Halloween.

Hiking the AT - 15 more miles

For some fun I went and caught up with the guys for the night... actually they stopped through again almost immediately after some more freak feet incedents and we shuttled them back.

We hiked in roughly 10 miles in to the shelter and the next morning another 5 to the shuttle vehicle. I enjoyed it but then realized that I am now up to approximately 95 miles of hiking so it looks like I might have to go back and meet up with them before they finish to get over 100 miles on the Appalachian Trail. Granted I have done over that if you count the River Trail here near town, but I can always use and excuse to road trip.

Caving - Lost World

I realize that I haven't really been updating this but life at home seems different than it used to so I am still trying to re-acclimate a bit to it while still keeping up my sense of adventure. Recently my friend Ashley invited me to do some caving at Lost World Caverns here in Lewisburg and I couldn't pass it up.

Basically I spent the day living like a spider monkey (one that lives in caves that is)

I did manage to see some cave geckos, crickets, and bats while I was down there.


I blindly charged into compromising situations and luckily didn't find out that I was claustrophobic halfway through.

I also decided that a nice relaxing bath in sub 50 Fahrenheit water miles away from the entrance was a good idea to clean myself off a bit. Ashley told me that this was the first time she had ever heard of anybody doing such a thing.

Bath or no bath, I still needed a shower after over 3 hours underground... maybe I will take one someday.

T.O.O.T Lewisburg (Taste of Our Town)

Annually my hometown closes down main street and one other for a day of food and celebration of local businesses. With live music going at multiple locations and vendors selling samples of their cuisine either to draw in new potential customers and to raise funds for Carnegie Hall.


Music is a staple


There is always someone manning a grill


It is just a time to eat, relax, and mingle.
