Oh yeah...I've wanted to get a pair of leather Scarpas for some time, so I finally ordered them this weekend. I had to cut through the red tape at home though and through it on the secret CC (don't tell Liza, lol).

I can't wait to get away from this job for a week. I figured now was the time to get some comfy new Scarpas broken in before all the hiking up there. Really looking forward to sharing photos of that area, too, with my Hivers!I was telling @cmplxty that we have a trip planned in two weeks to Grand Marais, Minnesota, and

threw it on the secret CC (don't tell Liza

Me: Secrets safe with me...

Also Me: Hey Liza, Sage bought some new Scarpas on the secret credit card account!

Get that trip done mate! I'm pretty jealous really as I've got nothing in the works currently. I was going to go to Cairns, Queensland but it's not looking likely now. I'm a bit bummed about it.

Damn! Cairns looks amazing! You tropical folks...I swear...so much envy
If it's any consolation, there are a lot of ticks up there...and we just medicated Ms. Mabel tonight. North North America is beautiful but so many pests

I lived there for a while. We call in FNQ, Far North Queensland. The Great Barrier Reef is off the coast and it's tropical. A legit place. Loads of shit that wants to kill you though, crocs, irukandji, snakes, wild boars, sharks, sea snakes and all...Still, a great spot.

#dontgetanyticks

ha!...my biggest worry is ticks, and the occasional Minnesota Viking fan (OMG, don't get me started), that wants to tell me his/her life story. That experience might be worse than a crocodile, possibly...if I have to listen to another Minnesota football team vs Aaron Rodgers at a Burger King...so help me god...

Bloody Minnesota fans...Just don't let on you're a cheesehead although they'll probably hear the accent and know?

Yeah, you can't escape that 'Sconnie accent, but...some MN folks do sound just like Fargo. That movie wasn't too far off, to be honest..."Darn tootin'"
