Really Cold

I originally titled this post "Unseasonably Cold" until I remembered that it is actually January.  Duh.  Its just the last year at this time, it was unseasonably warm.  We were hiking with just sweatshirts on in Brown County.  Today, I wouldn't have left the house if I hadn't had to go to the grocery store.  We pretty much ate all the food we had before leaving for the Christmas holiday.  And the last week, we've eaten everything we didn't think we had!  Of course, we still do have a freezer with 200+ lbs of beef and 20+ lbs of frozen salmon, but one can only eat burgers and salmon so many days in a row.  And actually, because of the cold weather, we haven't grilled since mid-December.  I admit, even as a Wisconsin girl, that 5* is just too chilly to be standing around the grill...even if it is out of the wind.

So anyhow, a bunch of you have been asking about the recipes for things I've been mentioning on facebook.  I'll get them posted for you here soon.  Most of them are ones that I pass on to class participants in my Transitions classes.  What's Transitions, you ask?  Only one of the best ways to EAT such that your body burns fat for you.  Okay...yes, you do have to exercise, but its amazing what happens when you eat foods that help you burn fat.  It just melts away.  But I digress...here is the website if you want to learn more about Transitions:  www.InHealthNow.com

That's it for now.  I'll post the recipes tomorrow. Toodles.

Excursions

Last night we booked an excursion for Monday in Kona. Dave has been itching to dive at Kona (not just snorkel) since before we went to Kona a couple years ago. He's finally going to have his chance! We have booked a dive/snorkel excursion for Monday. We're going to be doing a Manta Ray two tank dive. Well, let me correct that...Dave is going to be doing a dive along with friends Sip and Luke. Myself and my parents are going to snorkel. I'm really excited about this and I know my parents are going to be thrilled as well. They've never done anything like this before. The excursion starts in the afternoon with a late afternoon snorkel (or dive for those that are diving). Once the divers are in the water, then the snorkelers get to get in and check out the reef for a while. Then everybody gets out, has some dinner on the boat and then we head over to the second dive site where the Manta Rays feed. This is going to be really awesome!

Glacier Park - Sept 2009

On Sunday, September 6, we flew to Kalispell, MT and spent the remainder of the week hiking around northwestern Montana. We spent 4 days with my aunt and uncle, who live outside Libby, MT. Then we headed to Glacier National Park and enjoyed breathtaking scenery and gorgeous weather! Here are a few photos from our time in Glacier.
