Since Last time......and Adventures

I figured that since I haven't posted anything in quite some time, it was time to. Where to begin. Well, in relation to that post I had months ago, about finding a new job. I did find a new job. It wasnt' as difficult as I had anticipated to tell the person that I usually work with that I might not be able to work with him anymore. He took it rather well, and I was able to use him as a good reference for the new job. I havent' started yet, and I don't actually know if I have it, but I"m about 90% I do. I'd be an electronics tech again, but I"ve seen how this place works out. It will be different than past jobs I"ve had. Something to look forward to. ANd also, it's not that far of a drive. ABout 40 min or so. Which I can't complain about. It may even involve me moving to say , um, worcester. Who knows. I dont' know what the offer's going to be yet. But will see.
Today seemed like a marathon of adventure. I know a person who flies model RC airplanes. HE told me to stop by sometime he was flying , check it out, and you can go mountain biking out of the same place. SO I stopped by today. Had a blast. I actually flew a plane around for a while. It's alot harder than it looks. THese guys down there make it look like a piece of cake. WEll, I suppose with enough practice. I just kept getting my left and right screwed up, becuase when it's flying towards you, everything is backward, then away from you it's like normal. I"m just glad I had an expert hooked to my controller so when I messed up, he could make it alright again. haha I"m almost inspired enough to get one. I always wanted one when I was a kid. SO I know all about it. But it was like a dream come true to actually fly one.
Then the rest of the adventure included some mountain biking, starting at the recycling center in Sturbridge. It's sorta near 84. I head off down this cart road and somehow ended up at Bigelow HOllow. Which is not a bad thing. I actually rode there on Thursday, so I already had a map handy. That place is awesome. Then I took the Ridge Trail the whole way back. That trail is awesome. I"m not sure how it compares to other trails over there, but it had enough logs, drops , technical climbs and sweeping turns to keep your attention. I'd definitely hit that place up again. Maybe next sunday. There's also suppose to be a fun-fly, at the same place. I guess it's like a big ass party, but with remote control planes..
