Happy anniversary to us !. Diane and I were married 32 years ago here in Richnond VT. I love that girl SO much.. its nice having soemone you both love an like so well…   

.. nice to be here to celibrate with her..   I was at Burning man last year with max and gabe.. Here’s what we did to celibrate our anniversary then.. we did a show on the playa cam !

 

today we celebrated by hiking Mansfield.. it was such a beautiful day. we went up the very steep and wet Laura Cowles trail.. and down the long and easy sunset ridge. 

 

as we started, we met this nice couple from Quebec who had celebrated their 32nd the day before.. We saw them at the top too !

 

 

here’s looking towards home. where on the slope of the second small peak to the righ of the pointy Camels Hump 3 layers of grey back.. May seem lik  far.. but this is not much further than the kids high school.

 

at the round church… where we got married 32 years ago today

Thursday night (delayed) – downtown

Began the day in cambridge.. took an early T out to alewife and a bus to Kim and Kathy’s where I’d stashed my car. .. took advantage of the quiet morning to take a short walk in the woods down an abandoned town road.. How New England is this ?!

 

Drive back to Vermont was 100% full of phoen meetings. By 6PM i’d had enough work fo rthe week.. 

 

6:00 headed downtown for a hang out with some good friends.. ryan, jarrod, elliot and paul.. We went to Honey road which is definitely my new favorite restaurant downtown.. Super fun night with some very fun, interesting and pleasantly neurotic company.. m(yself included of course.) 

 

Ryan then lead us on a forced march around downtown.. or maybe paul was leading.. or was it me.. 

Heres us checking out Paul’s bikes at hotel vermont 

 

one stop was Bar 162.. I’d never been there.. it was cool and spooky-ish.. as I was leaving

someone shouted out my name.. it was Colin !.. (who lives in Hopuston and works for my brother !).. He’d been up here 3 weeks ago.. but was up for a friends funeral..  Kinda wierd small world to run in to him like this.. 

He fell in with us as we walked around soem more. 

 

I did run in to this drunk octopus  looking for a fight !
(Octopi wallstreet !) . 

 

got home tired and happy.. to late to blog..s o doing it this morning.. Our 32nd anniversary !.. More on that later !
