First Post of New Year

Today, I am going to try to write something new in this blog at least once per day. This is the one for today.

A book I am reading on time management says that it takes 21 days for something to become a habit. Well, lets see, if I write here for 21 days straight then this should become a habit.

Now lets get down to happen today. I am trying to get stuff so I can go snowshoe comfortably in the Rocky Mountain National Park (East side or West side). Today I went to Bass Pro Shop in Denver and got me some middleweight polartec thermal underwear shirts and pants. When I was growing up as a kid in Mississippi, heck we called those things "longjohns". I still call them LongJohns, but now they are fancy LongJohns. I also got me some nice heavy socks to wear with my boots that I bought for hiking, but have not even wore them yet. Just took them out of the box today and tried them on again wit the new socks and those socks were the right ones to get. Now we'll see if they keep my feet warm and dry.

Went up to the east side of RMNP as far as Glacier Gorge. Spraque Lake had a bunch of people on it ice skaing. First time I had seen that there. Came home and fixed myself a semi-traditional New Years Day meal. I had pork chops in BBQ sauce, rice and corn. I tell you, I can cook when I really want to. And I am really get tired of ewating out every night, so look for me to cook more often.

Well guys, that is about it.
