I'm jealous of your skiing Fygle. I like to ski but the place i like to go is a little far to go all the time. It could only be a weekend thing really right now. Do you have some trails close by for you that you can go? Do you go at night or during the day. We have some lighted trails but i go by myself so i don't really like to go alone at night.

[Fygle]

I have lighted trails a 10 min drive away from house, and I usually go at afternoons/evenings Love it.

[musculargirl]

Nice! Very nice! The trails i like to go to are around 15 miles away so there not super close. We have some closer trails but they aren't groomed as much or lighted in the evening. So I really only can go on the weekends if i want to go. Nice that you have that! I'm sure you have some pretty views too!

Have you ever tried snow shoeing? A lot of people like that around here too. I've haven't tried it yet.

[Fygle]

Well it's still pretty dark around here, I'd say we have about 6-7 hours of daylight. Although it's going in the right direction, there's not much to see at the times I go. A few weeks around June 20th the sun never sets, though

Snow shoeing? Never tried, looks fun though.

[musculargirl]

I forgot about that. I can't imagine having the sun never set. I would like that, I think. So do you have times where its all dark too? 6 to 7 hours of daylight is manageable in the winter, but all dark would be a depressing few weeks.

Wait... Are you serious? So you mean... you have daylight all day long? Beside using the time to tell... How do you sleep?
Even if you turn off your lights... outside is still bright and shinny... no?

[Fygle]

@musculargirl: Yes, 1-2 weeks around December 20 the sun never rises above the horizon! There's a little bit of daylight, but we can't see the sun. It can be a bit depressing, and hard to get up in the morning...

@Nokie: Yep, daylight all day It can be hard to sleep indeed, messes with your head. It's pretty cool though, parties last a long time Imagine a beach party with the sun shining at 2-3am

That seems like something neat to experence.

Hey aren't you going to the Grand Canyon this spring sometime? I thought you mentioned it a while back but i don't remember when. Are you going to camp for a while down there? That sounds like a fun time too.

[Fygle]

Yeah, we'll probably just make a short stop out of it. The plan was to drive from NY to LA in May, but we've most likely tweaked the route to Miami to LA instead. It's a little shorter, and we've heard driving from NY to to Washington is a nightmare and really boring. Miami, really looking forward to experiencing it!

[musculargirl]

I think Miami to LA is probably the better route. I've never been to New York but The northern states really are a little more boring i think to travel through. The southwest and south is a little more fun to drive thorugh. That is if you call road tripping fun. Some people do and some people don't.


Sounds like a fun time!

[Boss Man]

The downside however, is that when you have days of non-stop daylight, you also get some days of non-stop darkness.

Frankly I'm glad I live in a country, where you get some of both every day .
