More Pictures and Video

So last weekend I went out 4 wheelin' again with Andy and his coworker Mike (and fam). This time we avoided the deathly mountain cliffs and found 2 foot deep snow that had been untouched by a vehicle of any sort. It is actually the entrance to the Ira Springs Trail. We ended up running into an older Toyota 4Runner who was stopped at a downed tree. All of us were able to move it out of the way. As we continued on we ran into another, larger, downed tree. This time we had to use tow straps and Mike's Suzuki Sidekick to pull it out of the way. We continued on for about another 1.5 mile and found ye another tree, this one being the largest of the three. With no chainsaw or hatchet in hand we were forced to turn around. We headed back and stopped at Snoqualmie falls to check out the beautiful Waterfall. It was a good time (as always) though I feel it will be the last time of the year. But look out for some muddin' trips this summer!

PS. Sorry for the length of the video below. It was intended for Andy and Mike but is here in case you're interested.

Pictures & Video Time!

So i've been spending a lot of time lately working on pictures and videos. I recently got a new video editing program so I have been spending a lot of time teaching myself how to use it. My first project with it is of some sweet Wheelin' action that we did with my friend Andy when Jamie was out here. You might remember part one from before [See Offroadin']. This time we went out with a bunch of people who also had Toyota 4Runners. We went pretty extreme up the mountain side and actually found ourselves sliding backwards on ice at one point. Luckily we made out out by deflating tires and shoveling for traction. Still a little scary though knowing that we were pretty close to the cliff edge. Since this is my first time using the video editing program, it is a little more experimental and is about 7mins long. Though it's still entertaining none the less. Watch in HD & fullscreen for the full experience.

I also have a bunch of pictures from the trip:

Here are some pictures that I have taken recently. The last two mountain shots were actually taken from our Bedroom window. What a wonderful view we have!

Thoughts comment and suggestions are always appreciated! Thanks for stopping!

Shootin' & Drinkin'

Just a quick post. My friend Jamie came up last weekend from Madison for his first trip ever to Seattle. We had some good times including eating a lot of delicious food. However the highlight of the trip was definitely the LivingSocial event that we did called "Shootin' & Drinkin'". It consisted of going to the Bellevue Armory shooting range and shooint .22 & 9mm Pistols, MP5's and AK47's! We then received swat training from the King country swat team which included shooting Nazi zombies with paintball pistols. Next up was a fancy steak dinner at the Rosebud restaurant in Capitol Hill. There we sampled 3 different high quality whiskey's all the while being given the full history of Whiskey's and Scotch's. Did you know that Scotch is merely a whiskey which is made in Scotland? It was a wonderful time and something I would love to do again, especially shooting that AK47 :)
