Back in the Boat, Day Two Adventure

Today was my second day back in Steamboat Springs, and I felt like the activities of today were blog worthy.
The day started off around 9:45 when I met my parents outside the dorms, only to hear that the book store, which is where we were planning on going so I could get all my books for class on Monday, was in fact closed until Monday. After that it was time to say goodbye to the parents since they were heading to Colorado Springs to visit a family friend. Saying goodbye was again tough but I was excited at the same time for the coming year hear in the Boat.

After a nice quick nap, Bacon and I headed down to the dining hall for our first meal back in the cafeteria. Luckily it was some delicious breakfast food such as sausage, tator tots, and pancakes, so it was definitely a good start.

We had met up with some friends in the dining hall, and from there went to the Christy Sports tent sale to check out some great deals they had going on, and a friend even bought a new pair of skis and bindings.

We had met Corey at the tent sale, and from there, him, Bacon, and I went to check out the art fair going down on Yampa Rd. It was $5 to get in and the following are some pictures of some awesome pieces they had.

From there, we walked up the street to a store called Urbane where Bacon picked up a sick Spacecraft Bob Ross wallet. I actually wrote a blog about Urbane awhile ago, so if you want to know more, be sure to check it out, but basically it is a really cool clothing store here in town. On the way to Urbane, Bacon and Corey decided to support the local economy by picking up some popsicles from some boys on a ice cream bike shown below.

We continued the adventure across Lincoln Ave. to the farmers market where we got to sample some delicious barbeque sauces and revisited our childhoods by picking up a few snow cones. from there we dropped Bacon off back at the dorms so he could go on a nature hike with the ski team, and Corey and I headed to his place for a little relaxation by the pool and to start cooking up an excellent rib dinner with some friends.

After the hike, Mariah, Bacon, and fellow blogger Bobbie Jo came over to enjoy 5 lbs of ribs with Corey's homemade barbeque sauce with a whole number of delicious ingredients, as well as some delicious corn on the cob.

So basically, I'm happy to be back in Steamboat and can't wait to have more days like this one over the school year. Peace.
