This weekend B and I managed to achieve what I think is the perfect combination of social, lazy, and active.
Friday we went to a dinner party at S&K's place which was a lot of fun. I had some difficulty due to the noise level and the number of different conversations going at the same time ... but hopefully no one minded when I zoned out or just took a minute to myself.
Saturday B and I woke up and went for Breakfast. I came home and promptly went back to the bedroom to lie down for a minute. 4 hours later, I woke up feeling refreshed. The last few weeks at work have been very busy and have taken their toll. I guess Saturday was the first day I paid for the recent long hours.
Sunday we woke up relatively early (8:30?) and were out the door at 9:10. We drove up to the Catskills to go hiking at the Minnewaska State Park. We took it easy during the hike and simply hiked (instead of running) for a change. We spent 4 hours hiking in the park and enjoying the folliage. Except for a 1 mile hike through a stream (literally trying to not walk in the water but failing) it was a lovely hike with beautiful weather and views. After hiking, we drove to a local farm for apple cider donuts and hot apple cider. TASTY. I hope to get another farm fresh applecider donut before the season is over.
I'm still a bit run down from the hike yesterday, but I'd have to say it was a pretty great weekend!
the hike was really great. my legs hurt for days afterwards :).
ReplyDeleteYou did forget to mention the fact that we managed to watch and entire season of The Wire on Saturday despite your four hour nap ;-)
We sat in those chairs watching the wire for so long that my arm went numb!
