When I was in scouts I took part in Canoe Trails. Canoe trails was a high adventure program that was run by Explorer Post 488 in Vanport, PA. It was run by George Wildman. We went canoing in Kipawa Canada. There is almost nothing on the internet about Canoe Trails or Explorer Post 488 which I find amazing. Maybe by making this post someone who has more information will stumble upon it and help me find out it's current status.

I found this story on Go Magazine about how Philly Beer Week and how Pittsburgh is a better city for beer than Philadelphia. While I like the sentiment I have to strongly disagree that Pittsburgh is a better beer city than our arch rivals across the state.

So I finally did it, I became a member for public media. While I would of rather given my money to WDUQ radio for all the NPR that I listen to. I never brought myself to pull the trigger.

But this morning I was flipping channels and saw Chef Kevin from Alchemy on a cooking show, it caught my attention and I watched him make jello noodles for his bison dish. That guy is nuts.

Heather did not have a good experience getting the epidural put in. They had to do it twice and call in some help. While she pretty much went to sleep after I was allowed back in the room. She said it was a horrible experience. But now she's in good shape. They broke her water and she's napping or at least trying to..

Heather is getting her epidural and they kicked me out of the room. I had some blueberry pancakes, and now I'm waiting for them to let me back in.

We're at the hospital and just waiting for morning. Here is a video that we just shot. The hospital has free WiFi which rocks. but they block Youtube! so I had to upload the video over my work VPN.

Packing up the car for the trip to the hostpital. Still no sign of the baby coming on it's own. So we are going to use a little medicine to get those contractions going.

Apple's iPod is a great piece of equipment but iTunes never really worked for me. iTunes is great for the masses that have simple requirement for listening to music, but when you are outside of the siimple use cases using iTunes to manage your iPod becomes much more difficult. If you have all of your music on one computer, and all of your music fits on your iPod then you are golden, load up the iPod and listen away.

The baby didn't hop into the world yesterday. But I did get to have frog legs for Leap Day at Mad Mex.
