This is where I have listed a few random favorite things. I’m a little crazy about lists, numbers, and statistics. For instance, when I run, I need to know how far I went. When I sleep, I strive for 8 solid hours, though it doesn’t usually happen. So, it makes since that I enjoy listing things. Enjoy three lists of five cool items.
Exercises
- Walking (not much beats a good walk with a loved one or in great scenery)
- Seated Cable Rows (these make me feel buff)
- Split Squats
- Bench Press with Barbell
- 12 oz Curls (wait… does that count? on this blog, yes… it totally counts!)
Beers
- Growler’s IPA (cloudy yet not cask, from a brew pub in Gaithersburg, MD)
- Big Boss Bad Penny (a solid English brown ale with a hint of caramel from Raleigh, NC)
- Sierra Nevada Harvest (only found it twice – always on the lookout)
- Brewer’s Alley IPA (another great one from MD, this time from Frederick)
- Stone Levitation (a perfect marriage of malt and hops)
- Highland Brewing Company’s Oatmeal Porter (great for winter drinking)
- Dos Equis Amber (specialty? no. always good? yes!)
- And… oh wait… this is more than five, isn’t it???
Future Travels
