Summer is almost here

Only Nine days until the first day of summer. I am going to spend mine with some new friends. Tropical smoothie cafe is giving away free smoothies to their customers who come in wearing flip-flops on June 21st. So I thought that it would be a perfect day to host a mini-meet. A mini-meet is jsut that a few friends meeting for a short time to share stories about letterboxing and just be able to put faces with names.

There will be 20 0f us meeting at the cafe then going to a local park to hunt letterboxes that the kids and I have hidden. I am working on the clues for a few other boxes that are already hidden and just waiting to be found. With all of the storms that we have had of late, I really hope that we get lucky with good weather. Just no thunder storms would be fine.

There is another mini-meet coming in July that involves Ice Cream at the Yum Yum Tree in Brighton. What better reason than that to go hang out with friends again. =)

Have you tried Wii Fit? If you haven't you really need to. This is the most awesome game they have thought of yet. I tell ya it could be the next addiction. We played it for at least an hour an still didn't even explore everything that it has to offer. I think our favorite so far is the slalom skiing game. although Hula Hooping was fun too. The yoga section is very enlightening. There is Aerobics and balance too. The aerobics is very doable. No jumping or anything like that I guess it could be compared to step aerobics. It starts at a very beginner pace and only after you master that does it get into more combinations. These are the only things I have tried so far but I have a feeling that we wil be playing a lot more of this. Each person had their own account and fitness scores...they have fitness goals to meet and even a personal trainer. very cool indeed.
