Once Again in '07

Well, they (we) did it again- the Sox won the World Series last night!! A sweep of the Colorado Rockies left Red Sox Nation with their 2nd Championship in 4 seasons!
Can you believe it still?!
If 2004 was for all the misery and heartache and vicarious living for all those who never got to see a Sox Championship, then 2007 is for us to simply enjoy for what it is now- for what this team means in the here and now! And what a great time it is to be a Sox fan, as this team is set up to win for a long time to come.

So, congratulations to the 2007 Sox!! It just doesn't get much better in Boston...

Peace

Sloth-like in my updating...

Lets just say I've given new meaning to the term "actively blogging"- one would assume that active pertains to regular appearance, effort, and thought- all of which I have lacked over the past few months.

So what have I been up to.... or more appropriately, what is going on now?
As I always like to interject this time of year.... work has slowed down a bit, which mean more time to play around here. Maybe that's a good thing... but I presume that may be an embellishment!

Me and the guys climbed Mt. Washington a few weeks ago! Let me just put it this way- it's one of the coolest and most satisfying accomplishments I've experienced in a long while! We had a great time, a good bonding trip- all looked out for each other and had each others backs. Round trip to the summit and back was in the neighborhood of 9.5 hours, which is pretty good for a first effort.
Here's a few pics of the adventure. (click the text links, I couldn't get the pics to show up here)

Half way up.... and here's where we're headed next....

Almost there!
About 800' from the top... so still a ways to go, but we're getting there.

The Guys
Here's a great pic of us- peering out over our accomplishment!

The Sox are in the World series- and currently are up 1-0 in the series over the Colorado Rockies. Ya gotta love being to two world series' in 4 years.... now hopefully they/ we can pull it out again!!
I mean, winning it is cool and all... but seeing some more Papelbon dancing (clogging) is what I'm really lookin' for!! (yes, sarcasm...)

I'm still working on some cd reviews... but I just can't pull myself away from them long enough to actually compose some thoughts and translate them to this site. Don't worry, they're coming... I know you're livelihood depends on those viewpoints.


My heart and thoughts go out to the families affected by the Southern California wildfires.

Take care, peace, and Barak the vote!
