algonquin winter weekend
we went on our second Algonquin winter weekend, for the win! i was much more excited this year, knowing far better what to expect, and also knowing far better what not to do (drink too much wine and pass out at 9pm). instead i focused on staying up as late as possible! i believe i was the third last to bed this time! did i mention that i am a person of extremes??
the first full day consisted of a snowshoe hike (much shorter than last year) at Booth's Rock Trail in Algonquin. someone had the most awesome snowshoes that left tracks that looked like bobcats! i need to get me a pair of those for next year... we tried to make a huge pattern in the snow that looked like a fish, so that people doing helicopter surveys would wonder what the heck was going on..
after the hike we headed back to the WRS for a lasagna dinner and some games. we played a few rounds of "the game" run by emma, which eventually led to some funny moments. once everyone got really drunk, john started getting into the highly personal questions, which quickly degenerated into TMI. you really don't need to know those types of things about people you work with. trust me.
next day, alex and i went XC skiing on our own before heading home. another great winter weekend in algonquin, can't wait till next year!
ps. still didn't hear any wolves, and DAMN it is cold there at night!
