The Amazing Case

The Amazing Case is a sweet urban treasure hunt/pub crawl sponsored by Summit brewing company. Janet and I did it two years ago with her brother and sister in law and had a ton of fun. This time, we were back in business with our team, the "Cheesy Poofs." My bro, Derek, Janet, Mitch and I ran from bar to bar and did various challenges ranging from pole dancing to pin the tap on the keg. There was also a photo scavenger hunt where the boys got a Hooters girl while Janet and I coaxed the valet at a fancy hotel to let us in to photograph some fancy cars.

We had a great day and made it successfully to the finish line. I should have stopped drinking a little bit earlier, though, because I was hurting the next morning at work. Also, I hadn't thought about the fact that it was night and I had biked there, leaving my car at my brother's house. Which I was far too drunk to drive. Luckily, Joel went to get my car and pick me up!

Tracy came out to meet us at the finish line and celebrate.

Halloween Comp

Lynn as "Dot" in the first annual Halloween Costume Comp at Lynn and Kris's wall. Kris set a ton of awesome problems for the comp and we had an absolutely perfect day for it.












Jess and Trinh (the Asian beetle).

















Rocco as the cutest little dinosaur monster ever.






The wall may not have won the "best woody" contest in Urban Climber, but it is surely way cooler than most of the ones I have ever seen. Or the ones that won for that matter, although apparently painting clouds on it makes it better.

"Hula Joel" did win best costume with my bikini top on.














And my M&M costume was awfully hard to climb in. But the day was super fun!! If I'm not in MN next year, I'll have to try to come back for the tradition . . .
