I went back up to my friends camp this weekend and had a great time. Except for one little thing. The damn spider that decided to attack me while I was sleeping. Some how my hands got chewed up by the spider. I can tell it's a spider by the number of welts and how close together they are. I must have at least 30 bites between my two hands. It's crazy!! I am glad it was only my hands though. If it had gone after my face it would not have been good. I must have really pissed off some spider when I slept where I did.
Luckily they don't itch much but they sure look bad. Well the tasty beer at the Adirondack Brewery was worth it all. Next time I'll just have to remember to spray my area of the camp. Geeze!
Two friends of mine that have a camp up north about two hours asked me to join them on their little treck up there today. They wanted to check on the camp to see how it was doing after the winter and also wanted to visit a few friends who own Adirondack Steak and Seafood Company right in Lake Placid. The picture of the bar (top middle) was probably taken from right where we sat. Food was amazing and their brewed beer was awesome.
The drive up is beautiful. The Adirondacks are a must visit for any nature lovers who are in the Northeast. The weather was cloudy but no rain so no complaints. We stopped a few places to check out some water falls and some rivers. With all the rain we have had and the melt off from the mountains they were all running well. I took a bunch of pictures of some of the things we saw.
Lake Placid is where the Olympic Winter Games of 1980 were held with White Face as the main mountain.
It was definitely a fun day and I look forward to going back up to the camp. They invited me and it will be a lot of fun. Their friends at the restaurant were amazing and I look forward to seeing them again.
Tomorrow night (Feb 3 @ 9pm) the band Live Without Annette will be performing at Green Mansions Golf Club in Warrensburg, New York. This is there first gig at this location and they are pretty excited to bring their tunes to the a new area. After a nice visit their last weekend with the bassist, I think it's going to be a great night.
There are some sweet dart boards and a very nice pool table. The bar is well stocked and the staff is very friendly. Definitely a great spot for a great night out. If you are looking for a place to take a date, this is definitely a place I recommend. It's a bit off the main drag but it's a diamond in the ruff.
Join myself and the band for some good times! Hope to see some of you there!
