19 July 2014


Happy Saturday!

This morning I had grand ambitions of completing my long run of the week of 13 miles. I woke up a little before 8:00 to get some food in the furnace before heading out. At mile 4, I decided another 9 probably wasn't going to go very smoothly. My body was pretty tired from short nights of sleep last week, plus, I had to be in to work by 11:00 and my pace wasn't conducive to that time frame. I choose a new route and ran up to the Hulls Cove Visitor Center instead. I then picked up the shuttle to bring me back. All told, I finished a 9-mile run. I didn't feel too bad once I finished, although I would've cut myself awfully short on time if I would've ran another 4 miles. 

Pleasant day in the parking lot today. Nothing else too noteworthy at work. Pretty routine day.

Sabrina, Ally, and I went campground walking tonight down at Blackwoods. Luke is down in North Carolina for a wedding this weekend so he didn't think he'd have time to come with us. We had a couple of good conversations with campers, but no invitations to s'mores this week. We had to cut off the walking around 8:20. Darkness sets in pretty early out here. I still can't get over that. 

When Ally and I arrived back at the dorm, a bunch of dormies had the lights off and were watching the movie The Conjuring. I'm not sure how long it'd been going when I started watching it, but there were plenty of scary scenes left after I started. I've never been a big fan of scary movies. After watching a "supernatural horror film" I've decided I'm still not a big fan of scary movies.

Today's picture of the day is a picture a shot of a catchy sign I saw.
