A weekend of exercise and fun
Jun. 17th, 2007 05:44 pmThe exercise started with Saturday morning when gabriel_le and I hiked the Wolf Trail. We did the loop in about 2.5 hours, which is a pretty solid pace. I also did a couple bits of bouldering on a couple of convenient rock faces along the way. :)
Then this morning, juniorcrone, Texas-Robin, and I went out rollerblading along the parkway, where it is closed to cars for the morning. We did Parkdale to Carling and back in about 1.5 hours.
After lunch/brunch (at the pagan brunch), juniorcrone and I then went over to Coyote, where she climbed for about 1.5 hours and I added an extra 1/2 hour of bouldering to the end of that. I did several challenging routes -- a couple technically (the new 5.10b that I worked on and completed, even if it took a few tries on it), and several physically, because they were up overhangs.
And, the interspersed fun included raynedaze's party Friday evening where a good group of people showed up and some gaming happened -- including Samurai and TransEuropa, and a game of Tsuro that I didn't play in.
Cuddling and napping with gabriel_le on Saturday afternoon.
Gaming at con_girl's on Saturday evening, where I got to play Antike (yay for playing a new game, and most people seemed to like it, and it didn't take as long as I feared), then Ticket To Ride (in which Texas-Josh pipped gabriel_le 129 to 128 for the win) and Ricochet Robots (con_girl's copy) while the other table played Power Grid. A turnout of 9 people for the evening of gaming was awesome, and I thought it was cool to have serious games played at both tables.
Now, I somehow find myself with a Sunday evening with nothing scheduled. But, maybe, that's a good thing. I am a bit on the tired side.
