| Falls Park on the Reedy |
currently playing: Cake - Mexico


Margaret and I went to Falls Park yesterday. It turned out to be a really nice day to go. The weather was really nice- good thing considering I forgot to check it. The park was about 3 times bigger than I expected. Well, I guess it's two parks in one. Anyways, we walked across the cool "Liberty Bridge" and went down to the rapids where we climbed across the rocks. We made it all the way to this huge center rock that no one else could even touch. We were beast. Once people saw us out there, they tried to get there too. After playing on the rocks and getting a little wet, we started walking through the rest of the park. Apparently there is a zoo? We tried to walk to it, but never found it. We found lots of random exercise stuff like an exercise trail that you do stations while running or something. We had a fun time using our imagination to figure out what some of the stations are really used for. I should have taken pictures of the ones we couldn't figure out, but I didn't. It was a really nice park and I will definitely be going back there to maybe jog on the weekends or just hang out. It is about 15 min from my apartment. I expected it to be a much longer drive.

I played squash for the first time on Friday. That was...interesting. It is very different from racquetball. I was expecting it to be pretty similar. I did pretty well against Venkat. We are supposed to play again sometime today. It was a really great workout. The ball doesn't bounce like it does in racquetball... in fact, it doesn't bounce at all. That means you really have to run around a lot more. You can't play off of the bounces like you can in racquetball. It's pretty fun. I think I still like racquetball more though.
