Back from Vermont and in so much pain. Well alright, not as much as yesterday. We hiked an incredible amount over oh so many hills and tailings piles both days of the trip, and yesterday was harder since I was so sore. DAMN YOU APPALACHIAN MOUNTAINS. I'm used to sitting at my desk or on my couch, or walking on pavement, so it was a little rough going.
But good. The trip itself was fabulous and it was awesome to see some other contaminated mine sites. I haven't seen many yet, and I need to become more familiar for actually working in the field.
I'm planning on keeping up the exercise since I'm actually feeling really good after all that walking. Although I will admit, riding my bike up that first hill (that my house is at the bottom of) this morning was hard. My poor legs were shaking by the time I got to school. Gotta make sure not to over-do it.
Anywho, now I'm off to get some more work done. Trying very hard to get better organized for thesis stuff, since The Supervisor is starting to ask for things to read and deadlines. EEP!
