On Thursday, Bobby and I drove up to Hershey to see Stars on Ice. It was awesome! I had lots of skating skill envy, to the tune of "Why can't my camel spins look like that?" and "Why can't my footwork be so awesomely cool?" But then I don't practice for hours everyday either. (Rats.)

It seems that spring has finally sprung in Maryland. (I say that now. Next week, we'll have a foot of snow! 'Tis Maryland....) Yesterday, Bobby and I both took off from work since we'd been out late the night before. We went hiking on the McKeldin trails again, basically the same hike as last week, but this time we knew where we were going and we chose trails that kept us alongside the water at all times. It was perfect hiking weather: in the low 80s F, with no humidity, and just a bit of a breeze. In a few weeks, we'll be getting into the 90s F with 100% humidity and "Code Red" air warnings...then hiking is out of the question; it's uncomfortable if not dangerous. So we eke what we can out of this time of perfect weather.

Today I went to the skating show of my old skating group, the group where I started skating fourteen years ago.
