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: Awesomeness
http://lakeloop.blogspot.com/2009/10/awesomeness.html
Friday, October 02, 2009. Carl Sagan - 'A Glorious Dawn' featuring Stephen Hawking (Cosmos Remixed). Many thanks to melodysheep for the amazing tribute. That really is awesome. I watched it with my daughter (age 6). After about 20 seconds she said, Thats a crazy man. Ill have to come back and seee this laer- the rule here is, no videos when BB is in the room. Oka, I saw it, very nice. I will show it to Keith (and maybe Graham). I emailed a link to PB but dont know how hell respond. Adam's Grain of Sand.

Lake Loop: August 2009
http://lakeloop.blogspot.com/2009_08_01_archive.html
Saturday, August 15, 2009. Silly Sign Saturday: The Tree ID Edition. SodaBoy and I were hiking a few weeks ago when I spied this sign ahead down the trail. I'm always excited to see signs labeling plants. However, closer inspection revealed this particular sign to be an exception to my rule. This tree is decidedly not. An American beech ( Fagus grandifolia. Rather it is a red maple ( Acer rubrum. To see my earlier foray into silly signs, inspired by Murray over at Signs of the Times. Adam's Grain of Sand.

Lake Loop: Biking to Michelangelo
http://lakeloop.blogspot.com/2008/08/biking-to-michelangelo.html
Sunday, August 24, 2008. We live near the Hometown University campus, so when SodaBoy and I discovered there was an exhibit featuring Michelangelo originals on display at the art building, we were thrilled. Yesterday was the first available non-work day, so we took advantage of the nice weather, and biked over. Biking to an art exhibit was a fun new experience. To be particularly compelling. How very cool. Biking and art! Especially THIS art. WOW! Wish I could have been there to see it too! But seeing so...
