It's Friday.

Yes, thanks for reminding me, oh Master of the Obvious, you're saying.

I know, but it seems better to get it out there, give it some recognition. Seems to make it more real, that yes, the weekend is almost here.

On tap for this weekend (no pun intended)...

UMaine Homecoming!!

"Fill the steins to dear old Maine, shout til the rafters ring..."

The festivities with my old and crusty college mates will include a variety of fun indoor and outdoor activities. Of the slug variety, we'll partake of a few malt-based beverages and engage in mondo food episodes at the tailgate, and then watch the football game. On the more active side, we'll walk the most beautiful Orono campus, mountain bike some fine local trails, and play a round of golf.

I figure it'll just about balance out. And it will all add up to an enormous amount of fun. It always does.

What are your outdoor plans?
