First stop... the Devil's Backbone. It wasn't as scary as i thought it would be... but it could be deadly (if careless). I heard and read a few things about the place... so i had great anticipation.
If you look closely at the picture... the trail is fairly narrow and both sides are drops. So a slip or a trip or jump can be fatal. I can't believe i tried hiking this area with my three boys earlier this year.
When i did finally make it to the top i screamed at the top of my lungs, "Happy Turkey Day Everyone!"
Of course there was nobody around. That is when i decided to take a snapshot of myself.
After that photograph... i was hungry, kind of thirsty and my legs hurt. So i jogged my self back down (of course at a very slow pace).
Picked up Alesha, put on my suit and spent the rest of Thanksgiving with my mom, Lola and Scott (eating lots of food and playing poker). Left around 8:00pm and spent the rest of the evening with Alesha's family.

What an awesome story. Of course, i didn't tell you, but if I didn't hear from you by late afternoon, I would have gone up to look for you... in a totally "un-Gay" way. No water and no food is crazy, but to add unneccessary weight like a video camera adds to the "insane factor."
I'm glad you had a good Turkey day.
