meals for hot days
We're looking for some good meals for hot days. ideally cold foods but microwavable foods would be ok too. Any ideas?
Monday: hotness
Well, today I got my haircut and joined facebook. I thought I should join since everyone else seems to. and it'll give me another way to waste my time while playing warcraft.
In other news, it is absurdly hot over here and I'm in an upstairs room with two computers. We're going to move the computers to the basement, but in the meantime I'm a ball-of-sweat.

The Weekend: Watkin's Glen
This weekend we went camping to Watkin's Glen with some friends from church. We of course picked the first hot weekend of the year, but we managed to stay mostly cool. Saturday we went on a hike in the gorge. I think I liked this one better than the one in Ithaca...there was more dripping water and we were able to walk closer to the river.
Here we are by a waterfall that we could walk under
Here is the campsite. You'll notice we have a piece of plastic over our tent. That is because we had a 5 minute rainstorm, but enough to show us that our rain fly leaked. Ben looked at me and said, "Did we ever water proof the rain fly?" I just gave him a strange look. So, now we need to add that to the list. :)
We also played a fun round of frisbee golf, ate some good food, played some games (the girls did a lot of winning) and just had a good time with our friends.
More photos.

Tuesday: the weird, the gross, and the exciting
The weird: The dream I was having last night before I woke up...I was on a tour in the desert. But it had a ton of oases. Oasises? Anyway, the camels were really nice, kind of like ridable dogs. There was also a Burger King every 1-2 hours so we won't get dehydrated.
The gross: I saw my first ant in the house today. Yuck.
The exciting: Betsy got engaged!

Monday: more house projects
Today Dad and I did more house projects...we painted the office and fireplace and fixed the bathroom.
We took a walk around the loop and met some neighboors. I should probably get out more so I'm not meeting people 9 months after I move in.

Sunday: mini golf and finished room
Today we went to play mini golf . I enjoyed the course as it had a lot of cool sculptures.
We also finished the the room we were painting. (Re-hung the door, vacuumed, etc.)
