The 'Gump

Today's destintion: Montgomery! What a trip! Maybe I'll see this guy again:




Josh is having a party; that's why I'm going up there for the night. I've still got much to post, though. There are some great photos from California that I need to put up, and there are some other links and things to mention. This week was just a busy week of catching up and exercising. I've been on a good fitness roll and this week I ran every night of the week. Combined with the diet, my summer-long fitness regime has gotten me...amazingly...down to a weight I haven't seen since I was 21. It's rather incredible, and I feel damn good!

Gotta go now, but I'll leave you with one thing I've been meaning to mention. There's a new magazine on newsstands in the south...I heard about it in the Mobile Press-Register a couple of months ago...geared toward the "modern Southerner":

Garden and Gun.

Priceless! Here's a description from the website:
Like the South today, Garden & Gun will be rooted in tradition and history but vibrant with energy and newness.

At the heart of Garden & Gun is a love for the outdoors - upland bird hunting, gardening, fishing, sailing, equestrian sports and conservation. From a look at Jefferson's plans for Monticello's gardens to a trout fishing expedition on the Soque River to a visit inside Hemingway's Cuba, extravagant and lush photography combine with precise and compelling articles to reveal the seductions of the South and the Caribbean.

It reflects the lives of modern Southern men and women and inspires us to enjoy the fruits of the land while preserving the natural resources for the future.

Well, to the extent that shooting the fruits and paving over the resources preserves them...yes!
