Sometimes it’s nice to take a break, enjoy the weather, and spend time with friends. The summer is a great time for internships, jobs, and experiences, but it’s also wonderful to relax. I took the week off of work, enjoyed the weather, and decompressed. In the morning I would volunteer at the Organic Farm, and […]

Call me crazy, but this morning I woke up at four am to go for a five mile run and watch the Perseids Meteor Shower. I took the TAM (Trail Around Middlebury) loop through the Organic Farm, where I paused to watch the shooting stars. It was amazing to see the bright lights streak across […]

One of my favorite television shows of all time is Firefly. I love the dialog, characters, and plot. It’s based in the future and features a mixture of Chinese and English, cowboys, Star Wars, and thrilling adventures! Unfortunately, it only lasted one season. The short run-time meant that not many people were able to watch and […]

Last night I went with some friends to a minor league baseball game! This was the second baseball game that I have been to, and I had a great time! It was fun to spend time with friends and enjoy the outdoor weather. Vermont won, and the hot dogs were delicious! Tonight I am going […]

A friend of mine turned 21 last weekend. To celebrate, we hiked Camel’s Hump, watched the sunset, and ate homemade double layer marshmellow and chocolate chip brownie cake with rasberry jelly and homemade icing (we called this cake the monster). The view from Camel’s Hump was absolutely spectacular. I would rate the hike a ten […]

When I was a kid, family vacations consisted of loading food, sleeping bags, tents, and various supplies into a van and traveling to different national parks, museums, and hiking trails. We didn’t go to Disney Land, major cities, or massive theme parks. We saw Mount Rushmore, Crater Lake, the Oregon Trail, and Laura Ingalls Wilder’s […]

This past weekend a friend of mine and I were walking around the town of Middlebury when we stopped in at the Vermont Bookstore. As we browsed through the books an elderly lady approached us and asked if we could grab the book “Babar the Elephant” off of a top shelf. We handed it to […]

The summer before my sophomore year of high school was the only time that I have ever celebrated the Fourth of July in any official capacity. This past weekend was the second time that I celebrated it. In the morning, Maxwell and I made snacks and baked goods. Then we drove to Burlington with a group […]

 Middlebury College has an organic farm that  students created and contribute to. Last year students bulit a pizza oven there that is regularly used to make homemade pizzas. Last Friday night I went to the Organic Farm and we fired up the oven for some delicious pizza! Unfortunately, because the oven needs to be rebuilt, that was the last […]
