waterlogged
i had an awesome weekend. it was all about water. i went camping at pace bend with a bunch of friends saturday.
this trip involved much less cliff jumping for me than last time. the water level had dropped so low i couldn't safely climb up the little cliff (a whopping 13 feet) and i wasn't jonesing to jump off the "big" cliff. i did managed to climb up the little cliff once. note: water goes into all sorts of uncomfortable places when you hit the water spread eagle.
this trip was much more sophisticated than my usual trips. we had a camp fire where food was cooked, including some delicious peach cobbler.
of course there was some drunken, naked night swimming (my favorite), and we even made some random new friends in the lake. we shared our funnoodles. they didn't share their beer (though in retrospect we probably didn't need more).
the glorious weather is still around so i didn't need to use my rainfly. it even got cool enough that i needed a sheet (in Texas August!) and i could see the stars while laying inside my tent. it was great.
sunday morning, it was so cool we didn't want to swim. i promised my friend brian, i would jump off the "big" cliff with him in the morning. but we didn't have to face our fear of the jump this time.
after a brief nap upon arrival back in austin, i went to barton springs with a couple of friends and spent the day hanging out in cold water and warm sun.
i had such a great outside weekend. next weekend, it's all about NYC. My dad is flying me home and putting the whole family up at the Plaza to surprise my mom for her 50th birthday. My mom is going to be shocked. I can't wait to see the look on her face. And I'll get to play with a bunch of friends on Friday. I hope to sleep little and stay out late.
From camping one weekend to The Plaza the next. What a rough life I have:)
