beauty death spring casino trip

theres an old mystery casino hidden deep in the forrest on the top of a mountain overlooking a town

Cody was sure I'd fall through the floor, but I proved him wrong. I think he's just sensitive about his weight..

Epic Beacon to Cold Spring Hike

if i read the map correctly, this is Lake Surprise

i saw a wolf, but it was too quick to get a picture, so i captured this tree instead

the trail was not for the novice hiker. we traversed several more peaks after this 

From the top of Breakneck Ridge you can see there is an island on the Hudson that has an old castle on it.  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pollepel_Island

tree-holes and walking places

As always, its a complete joy to leave the confines of the city and go hiking.

Some beardo came up to us and asked to have his picture taken in front of this frozen swamp.  he seemed nice enough...

Thank God for Firemen

If anyone ever says to you, "Man, firefighters make so much money..." just stop them, and punch em in the face for me. Then advocate that ALL firefighters get a raise.
 My house would have been burned down today if it weren't for the quick and effective response by Brooklyn firefighters. Thankyou thankyou thankyou to any firefighters that happen to read this. You do an invaluable job and are some of the few people that can proudly be described as heros.

How many rainbows have you seen go through a house? I saw this one
