Zip-Line weekend ~ like a blur

Had the chance to hang out with some very cool people last weekend (Sept 24, 2011)

Things for the weekend started out rather slow as it was intended. I had my Friday night dialed in with the usual events which mainly consisted of chilling out with a few friends. This Friday night was a little different as I had the potential for some new company Saturday night, well not “new” but company none-the-less!

Saturday morning at noon Jillian had her Soccer game and I’m always looking forward to that. I volunteered as an official timer for her team “the EAGLES” and recently I’ve been helping the coach ~ the girls need a little help with “throw-ins, passing, and getting the ball in the net” so yeah, pretty much everything! I will say that Jill has come a long way as far as the game goes and has shown a very strong determination to improve her skills! Her team is showing improvement and we are all excited for each game!

Saturday afternoon was perfect! ~ Had lunch with Mr.John Schaal and discussed some of the upcoming snowboard season some new rules and changes, just the condition of the industry in general.  Time to meet up with the pranksters John, Shawna & Jenny at John’s place. ”Enter Miguel Sanchez…”  John started out by setting a trap of Pop-it’s on the garage floor to spook the unsuspecting J-Lowe on arrival!  5 passes, stepping over them and she didn’t step on a single one! FOILED!  OKAY~Time for some drinks and conversation, more like non-stop laughter!

"I'm SOO thirsty!!"

We’re hungry!  – off to dinner at the Fenton Hotel, yes it IS haunted!

This pretty much sums up the tone of the evening!

The following pics are from the Howell Nature Center, a 500+ ft Zip Line over a Lake (We informed Samantha and Mark our guides that it was merely a pond)

  More to come!
