Wow, what a great weekend.

I had a fantastic weekend…which was a refreshing change from last weekend.

Friday night I attended a pool session and was finally able to understand that properly executing a wet exit from a kayak is far more comfortable than flailing about until the boat can’t handle any more abuse and eventually lets go of your newly bruised legs….or so I’ve heard.

Saturday I had an enjoyable day at home cleaning my apartment and taking care of some things that I’d let pile up over the last few weeks. Saturday night I was a total homebody and made a delicious dinner and watched a movie, which was interrupted by a surprise visit from a good friend.

Sunday I picked up Kodie and my friend and I drove to Bernheim Forest and had an incredible all day hike. The weather was absolutely beautiful and all of us came home good and tired. In fact, I ate dinner and fell asleep on the couch by 8 pm.

I hope the positive vibes carry me through the whole week. I’ve got backpack trips planned for the next two weekends and life is good.
