No New Orleans

Sadly, I will not be venturing to New Orleans in February.  I was really looking forward to making the trip and running the half marathon, but circumstances have made this trip highly impractical. 

I believe I started running to soon after the Philadelphia Marathon.  This led to knee troubles. They are starting to feel better but I don't think I want to put 13.1 miles on them in a little less than a month.  Also, I have been having some car trouble and shouldn't really spend the money on taking a trip to New Orleans.

As far as travelling, there is a blip on the radar in the future.  I am heading up to the Poconos for the weekend with a couple of friends from college.  We are going snowboarding/skiing on Saturday.  I haven't been snowboarding since I was in 6th grade, so I am pretty excited.  The weather forecast is calling for snow showers, so the weather might not be ideal.  I am sure we'll have fun anyway.

Hopefully I can get some good photos in the mountains with the snow.
