I've had a great weekend so far. I've been enjoying my time in Northern Idaho.

We went hiking on some property out here by a private lake, hoping to throw a fishing line in, only to find that the lake was frozen over. And not only frozen over, but so frozen that when I threw a huge rock out there, it bounced once with a thud. The Ice? Still intact.

I also enjoyed a hilarious movie, RED, which I laughed so hard my stomach began hurting.

And best of all, my son is starting to get into baseball, so we went outside for the first time to try it out. He hit the ball a number of times. I was so impressed.
