That’s my Dad. He’s badass.
Hello All,
Lights dim in the family room. Planet Earth ‘Mountains’ plays in the background. Your blogger takes a sip from the home brew. Laptop open, photos in order. Attenborough guiding us through our journey.
The stage is set.
The Blog begins.
… Okay, I am not sure why I just wrote all of that up there, but what the hell, it’s late and I haven’t written for a while, and this post could use a little avant garde.
The Winter has been nuts! I’ve definitely gone out and partied and adventured and loved … Yes, I’ve gotten the essentials in … But I’ve been working my ass off crazy and on top of that am taking a class. Whew!
Luckily, we live in a very rad place with rad people. And one of those rad people – Kernel – had a bday this week and we made sushi.

There was a massive birthday celebration for excellent homeys this past weekend.
We mobbed hard.

The fellow blogger was under the weather that night. Total bummer.
But that lead to me getting hammered with the guys and stumbling home way late and engaging in general debauchery along the way.

Ahhh, the city.
What a friggin gem!

We did a video chat with one of my favorite dudes.
He is missed.

I cut my finger real gnar with a knife.
(Mom, don’t worry, I saw the company nurse and she fixed me right up!)

So I took a math refresher class also.
It was 4 Saturdays in a row, 8 hours a day.
This German dude named Dieter taught it.
He’s legit as fuck.

We went to a rrrrrad super bowl party.
 |
| From Winter 2012 |
And mobbed it way hip on our way there.
 |

Where was the party at?
None other than the incredibly lovely Anna’s house.
(She has an awesome roof as well!)

but we still found time for higher pursuits. although the chess has been by no means gnar around here, we’ve gotten in a few games.

Got tickets to the balet.
Check out my date.
Damn … Seriously … No Joke … You’re smokin.

Oh … Dude! … It was Danch’s Bday a few weeks ago.
We went on a nice little hike to one of the most angelic places in the world.

and we chilled.

He’s one of the best guys I have ever known. A truly sophisticated beast!

We can end the post with a little blurb on camping.
A month ago, we geared up for a mellow little over night trip in Point Reyes.
I corralled the usual suspects.
 |
| From Winter 2012 |
And got my shit in order.
 |

The air was crisp, and pretty much perfect for enjoying the views of Drake’s Bay.

Hello Redwoods!
 |
| From Winter 2012 |
Perhaps we should conclude with another hiking apology.
Ya know how I took the fellow blogger on that gnar ass hike in Big Sur for my birthday. And ya know how bad I felt and stuff.
Well, looks like another apology is in oder here.
However, let me just say that she gets huge props for being such a trooper.
But straight up, it got really fracking cold that night – like low 30′s – but we weathered the winter in fine form.
