Tasty Tuesday: Weekend Baking

So, I haven’t posted one of these in awhile, but that’s partially because I haven’t baked anything in awhile. But we skipped the Farmer’s Market this weekend, so I needed to make bread, and I had pumpkins that needed cooked down, so that kept me out of trouble for a few hours.

Bridge Day: Summersville Lake

Route 19 passes by/through Summersville, which perhaps best known for being the biggest speed trap in the state.

The bridge over Summersville Lake actually has a pedestrian walk, and is an amazing view.

Bridge Day 2011

So, if you’re unfamiliar with this West Virginia holiday of sorts, Bridge Day is when they close the New River Gorge Bridge for six hours so you can walk across it, rappel down it, and jump off it.

We went for walking across the bridge and taking pictures.

We’re almost there!

Brdige Day! Road Closed!

Yes, Dear

Michael: I won’t jump out of an airplane, I won’t jump off a bridge, but I might rappel.
Michelle: Really?
Michael: It’s just like a shortcut to the ground!
Michelle: So? BASE jumping is an even FASTER shortcut!

And with that, he’ll probably never rappel either.

Scavenger Hunt Results: Four Letter Destruction

Had clear skies coming home, so managed to get everything today.

Bird. This was disappointing only because earlier this week I saw about thirty birds hanging out by the PRT tracks.

Wednesday Word Association: Games Edition

How is it Wednesday already?! I think time is playing games with me. And it’s almost certainly some game I hate, which brings us to today’s starter word: Monopoly

Blackwater Falls State Park

Saturday we took a nice scenic drive to Blackwater Falls State Park. Oddly, despite the number of times we’ve visited the park over the course of our lives, we’d never actually hiked around the park, so that’s what we did this weekend.
