Hatboro-Horsham Adventure Club Trips

August 29, 2007

Summer of 2007 comes to an end. It started off with a trip with the students to British Columbia. We had fun bungy jumping, rafting, rock climbing, zip lining and back country hiking.

Soon after returning from the trip I set off on an adventure with my new company and my first two clients to Alaska for 10 days. Great trip.

Finally I spent the last 2 weeks in Holland, Germany, Czech Republic, Slovakia, Hungary and Austria. Jim, Will and I had some great adventures and even managed to get some mt. biking and canyoneering in while visiting the Bavarian Alps.

New Local Rap Video

Some may see this as ridiculous but I actually kind of think it is very nice. I think these young men have a quite the future.

The Bridge

Last night I rented the documentary, The Bridge and it was very interesting. It covered the lives of 6 people over a 1 year span in 2004. The documentary is about suicide and it leaves you feeling pretty sad to think that people really can get that down to a point where nothing matters to them. Either way, here is the website if you want to check it out. http://www.thebridge-themovie.com/new/index.html
