Trip to the Poconos
by admin on Nov.26, 2009, under Travel
I got invited to go with some friends on a trip to the Poconos. One of the guys I went to college with moved there for work. He says it is awesome and that there is no place more beautiful that he has ever lived.
I did some research and took a guys recommendation about picking the best Pocono hotels. I am looking forward to a little resort life for a solid week. I see that this place is obviously a honeymoon destination. I guess that pretty much rules out me hooking up with some nice single girl while I am there.
I was hoping that we could get a round of golf in. But, I guess that is pretty much out of the question due to the time of year and this thing called snow. The skiing is supposed to be good there though. I love to snowboard. I don’t think anyone else who is going does though. Bummer.
That is okay. It probably would have cost be another hundred bucks to put my snowboard on a plane. The airlines are just ridiculous with fees these days. I hope Southwest goes there.
If it is anything like college was then it is going to be a giant drunk fest where half the guys end up puking their guts out. I plan on taking some liver pills ahead of time to be good and prepared for a serious bender. I don’t know if I can survice an entire week of this kind of alcohol abuse. But hey, I am willing to give it a try. Wish me luck.

One of these days I will actually get around to working on this. I am checking out Ancestry.com.
So far that seems like the most logical place for me to start.
