I was so excited about 24 when it started up again. That excitement faded away as the season progressed and now, with the season finale coming up in 6 days, I have to wonder if it was all worth it. This season has been boring compared to previous seasons, and especially compared to some of the other shows on TV.
Anyway, hello. I'm a TV addict, but don't be worried. I get out a lot as well. I also plan on posting a bit more often. I've said it before, but this time I mean it.
Really. :)

After 2.5 hours this morning, I have June reservations for the Upper Pines campground in Yosemite!
That's one step closer to climbing Half Dome. Upper Pines is right across from the Happy Isles trailhead, which is many steps from the dome.
So now comes the long, arduous task of being sure I'm fit. Actually, I've been exercising and training for some time, getting ready. That Feather Falls trip on New Years, though, reminded me that I need some stairclimber work.
Time to get crackin'!
Oh, one more thing:
Don't ever mess with Jack Bauer. Don't make him kill his close friends, then top it off with blowing stuff up in close proximity. He's pissed now.

I just realized I had to share something.
Backpacking gear-wise, I'm finally to the point where I could go out. Sure, I don't have a stove or "special" clothes, but I have the important stuff. My last purchase was a Therm-a-Lite Prolite 4 self-inflatable pad.
At any rate, I wanted to try it all out, so I invited my 4-year-old to camp in the living room with me. Of course he was more than happy to!
The other day, I had found a gear loft from our monster 8-man family tent that my wife's mother bought for us. The tent is WAY too big, the thing weighs about 40 pounds packed. Anyway, the gear loft...
I hung it inside the backpacking tent, and while it was loose, it was useable. I went to the bathroom, and when I came back, my son said, "Daddy, daddy! I made it better!" He managed to loop it on some wider loops to not only tighten the loft, but it's not loose anymore. Gotta love it!
