Little Hike with Laura 
Thursday, June 15, 2006, 08:38 PM - Hiking/Camping
We took a short hike in the woods behind our house. About a mile away there are cool boulders to climb on in the middle of a good sized urban forest. They also found a GeoCache that my mother had hidden back there.

Scuba Diving Practice at Buhl's Stubler Pit 
Wednesday, June 14, 2006, 08:05 AM - Scuba Diving/Snorkeling
Miranda, my mother, and I practiced scuba diving at Stubler Pit in Buhl, MN. We mostly just stayed in the beach, eventually going into about 12' of water. We practiced clearing ears and bouyancy. Good time. Miranda and Mom did great. Forgot to take pictures, so I scribbled red on an aerial photo of where we went.

addendum:
And afterwords we stopped at Luke & Sara's and had some FANTABULOUS PIE!!!
Thanks sara!

Well, we have just setup this travel diary to keep record our travels.
I have gone back and added some recent adventures we've had so there is something in here. We have not actually left yet. Still working on finishing up work. Hoping to be on the road by the end of June.

Miranda and I took Jim Nyhus (Work Friend) his wife Monica, and their 3 kids rock climbing up at Ely's Peak in Duluth. Had a good time, rappelling off the 50' Top knotted up my stomach! It's been too long since we last climbed!

Sailing with Scott 
Saturday, June 10, 2006, 08:27 AM - Windsurfing/Sailing
Went out sailing with my buddy Scott. It was a big race, huge winds 20-30mph. Miranda managed to get out of it.
We did a terrible show :) . We only managed to get the main sail up before the race, and reefed it because of high winds. One minute before the start, we busted the main sail's reef point.. BAD START. Took us a couple minutes to fix, and we were trailing the rest of the time. COLD WINDY DAY... Guess it was fun ?? :)


Bad picture of Scott, Amber, and Duluth Harbor.
