So saturday, I woke up much too early and skiped on down to Milford for some mini moto action. We got to ride for a little over an hour before my bike started to over heat. We wanted to grab some lunch before the afternoon's activities so we packed up and headed off.
At about 4pm, we arrived in New Haven for their annual clue fest. Clue fest for those of you who don't know is a scavenger hunt, where the clues are all points of interest in New Haven. Me and Ian were going to be a team, but as enithor of us know a ton about New Haven it wasn't looking good. But we were going strong, proudly promoting the Riding Nerdy team name. As it went we ended up getting taged up with another team, who unfortuatly had already registered with the name "the sharks" as some sort of west side story reference. I didn't really get it as none of them were prominantly hispanic and we didn't do any singing or dance routines. Eithor way it all worked out pretty well as one of the members of the sharks knew a lot about new haven and with my ability to solve puzzles and my and Ian's ability to run all over the city, we actually were doing pretty well. We got a bit of a slow start due to a lack of direction and proper planning in the first part of the hunt, which was comprised of a lot of counting tiles or windows or arches on prominant new have buildings. This got us a slow start to the second half of the hunt which was made up of the riddle like questions. Then on out first question our driver decided to take us to the wrong part of the city, so we lost more time doing that.
So the day wound down with it hitting 8:30 Pm and we still had 4 more locations to get to. The game was called and the secret party location revealed. So for the next few hours we kicked it down in the Peabody museum in the hall of dinosaurs. The food was good. The beer was good. And the location was totally Key.
I got home about 12:30.
Sunday was a bit more lapsadasical. I came in to school for a bit and me and BZ had lunch at Dairy Queen (tasty). We're starting to make the plans and arrangements for the ceremony. It appears that everything for a wedding cost about 4 times what it normally would. The whole thing is just rediculas.
