flashback: 1 year

it's been over a year since i began the tradition of weekendly hikes, although at the time i didn't know it would be a weekly thing.

there have been gaps but there have also been weeks where i hiked multiple days and thus the average remains about once a week for more than a year now.

that's pretty cool.

i've upgraded my gear and my stamina and now an 8 miler is easy without lots of elevation gain and a fat pack on my back. i no longer have the chance to blog about the hikes afterwards. i seem to be busier overall than i was back then, and really, a 16 mile hike leaves less time in the day to blog than does an 8 mile hike.

i dont take a camera these days, though that may change. there really is a lot of cool stuff out there to shoot, but sometimes it requires a quick draw.

anyhow. i've been a weekend warrior for a year now. so noted.
