Lake Loop: Walking to Winslow Homer
http://lakeloop.blogspot.com/2009/09/walking-to-winslow-homer.html
Saturday, September 12, 2009. Walking to Winslow Homer. This afternoon SodaBoy and I walked over to the art building at Hometown University to see the Winslow Homer exhibit. The art is one of the great things about living in a college town; last year there was a Michelangelo. Exhibit to enjoy. I can't wait to see what the feature is next year. If you are in the Hometown University area, or will be here before October 11, definitely stop by to see the Winslow Homer exhibit. It's well worth the visit.

Lake Loop: Summiting Esther
http://lakeloop.blogspot.com/2007/09/summitting-esther.html
Wednesday, September 05, 2007. Esther was the the target, the peak I had selected before driving up north, the peak I had obsessed about on the couch at home, poring over the trail guide. Morning came sunny and bright, and we snarfed our cold camp breakfasts, loaded up the day packs, and headed out down the bumpy road. We were camped at South Meadow, a primitive site in the heart of the High Peaks, but Esther is 10 miles north or so, up by Whiteface. We parked at the ASRC. View from Marble Mountain.

Lake Loop: Summiting Wolf Jaws
http://lakeloop.blogspot.com/2009/09/summiting-wolf-jaws.html
Sunday, September 13, 2009. Approaching the gatehouse, where non-members such as ourselves (i.e., hiker trash) must normally check in with the club ranger, I heard distinctive laughter. That is J. The Wolf's Tooth false summit, photo by SodaBoy. Lunching atop Upper Wolf Jaw, with view of Armstrong, photo by SodaBoy. View from UWJ, looking back over the Tooth towards LWJ, photo by SodaBoy. View from Lower Wolf Jaw, note the sharp peaks of Marcy and Algonquin. A nice accomplishment, indeed. Northeast, Unit...

Lake Loop: March 2009
http://lakeloop.blogspot.com/2009_03_01_archive.html
Tuesday, March 31, 2009. The big leaves are daffodils, of course, while the small leaves are garlic mustard ( Alliaria petiolata. This is a weeding battle I can never win: I knock it back every growing season, but every spring is just the same - like I never pulled a one. Sunday, March 22, 2009. Grow; where we see the first robins. I've been mulling this over for the last week, and oddly the process of analyzing the mystery has caused me to photograph the tree less - I didn't take pictures of the tree on...

Lake Loop: Summiting Whiteface
http://lakeloop.blogspot.com/2009/09/summiting-whiteface.html
Sunday, September 27, 2009. Whiteface and Esther are the northern-most of the Adirondack high peaks, set well apart from the rest. Due to that separation, Whiteface is easy to identify from a distance, especially given the distinctive slides, ski slopes, and castle-like structure perched up top. On the Saturday morning of our climb, we picked it out on the drive to the trailhead without those giveaway landmarks: it was the one entirely ensconced in clouds. View from Marble Mountain. Moving along, we soon...

Raised Mormon - Turned Out Gay: Thanksgiving in January
http://controllerone.blogspot.com/2015/01/thanksgiving-in-january.html
Raised Mormon - Turned Out Gay. What if this is as good as it gets? Thursday, January 29, 2015. I can't believe it's 2015. And that I haven't posted since October of last year. It's not like I've had nothing going on in my little pea brain. I actually plan to write soon about the following topic: The far reaching consequences of the many small decisions we make in our lives. My twitter friends, especially a certain professor from Indiana. Hearing from Matthew my young friend from my home town. And appare...

Raised Mormon - Turned Out Gay: On Eating the Berry Horn First
http://controllerone.blogspot.com/2014/07/on-eating-berry-horn-first.html
Raised Mormon - Turned Out Gay. What if this is as good as it gets? Friday, July 25, 2014. On Eating the Berry Horn First. I love Svenhard's breakfast horns. They are perfect for the first meal of the day - for lunch and dinner too. My absolute personal favorite is the Berry Horn. Unfortunately, I have yet to successfully locate a pack of only Berry Horns. I always have to buy the much less desirable horns in order to get the Berry Horns. Clearly unfair, but then thus is life. My desire to "save the best...
