Trip to Ohiopyle

I went rafting on the Upper Yough in early June. It was quite the bumpy ride and I don't recommend it for anyone who's never been whitewater rafting. It was a great day to raft. Sunny skies and warm temperatures ruled the day. Water temperature was awesome, near 60 degrees and river flow was excellent. I hope to try the Gauley in West Virginia next.

Deer!

I just had a great vacation that included skiing at Seven Springs Resort in Pennsylvania. All good things must eventually end, which meant going back to work. I was greeted to a field of deer close to the house. Work is busy as usual.

I find the political prelims interesting and entertaining. As usual, the Democrats and Republican get first rate billing, while viable third parties such as Green and Libertarian get fringe treatment. I don't like any of the "candidates".

I Burnt My Face In San Francisco

Okay, I didn't exactly get a total sunburn, but my arms, cheekbones and nose got a little pink during my weekend extravaganza in San Fran. Some peelage on the arms, but nothing too itchy or painful.
