my summer - May

Went fishing with my dad and brothers on Lake Michigan at dawn. I caught salmon, got super seasick and froze my nuts off. That's bonding.


All six Alcids in one place? Unpossible!!


Why not try remembering colors and sports in case numbers were too hard...

I can’t remember a colder month of May. By conventional standards, April is the month when you get rained on. This, however, doesn’t apply to Michigan and its ass-backwards weather. April was unusually hot enough for me to wear shorts and work on my tan, but May was cold, miserable and rainy. And since work required me to be outside for long periods of time, I took my down jacket out of hibernation. Down jacket. May. Unpossible.

Talking about the weather is what people talk about when they don’t really have anything to talk about, and since I already mentioned my Minneapolis trip, that pretty much sums up the month. It basically amounted to biding my time until I had to leave the country. I got some extremely rare yet quality family time in, but in terms of excitement I blew my load in the land of ten thousand lakes. :p
