A Child is Born

Posted in General Hub Bub by Green People on the September 27th, 2007

I don’t know if this is the correct spelling but Kayden was born and is a healthy baby. It took some time to name the baby and he is here and ready to grow. Congratulations to Miko and Kriag on their new baby boy.

It’s always nice to see a new baby come into the world. Especially when you know the people that are caring for that child are so deserving. There was a little doubt that Kraig could pull off getting a child of his own and now he has little KAyden to care for and nurture to a young man of honor and integrity.

Congratulations again Kraig and Miko on your 7lb 11oz beautiful baby boy!!

Ski Chalets

Posted in Misc by Green People on the September 27th, 2007

The greatest vacation is a ski vacation. I swear they are the most fun we have ever had getting on the slopes and getting down and snowy. Luxury ski chalets in Courchevel, France and Meribel, France are amazing with such views and two spots that we are dieing to get our ski on. Another great place that we want to add to the list of places to ski soon is St Anton, Austria. You can find some of the most amazing views form the luxury ski chalets in St Anton. Luxury Skiing holidays are not as much as you would think either. They are truly very affordable and you can get a great rate when you book online.

Heat is Buggin

Posted in General Hub Bub by Green People on the September 27th, 2007

I cant believe it is still hot in this house. We have been interviewing people to go on the Whirled Glass Tour with us all week and the room that we interview them in is like the hottest room in the house. We want to go on a glass blowing tour around the country and visit some of the places that we blog about on here and possibly pick up a few new places to blog about.

It’s like the air conditioner is not even running or something. I have been roasting in this room with these people and I know they are roasting to. That makes me feel bad about calling them back and asking for a second interview. Are they going to be like … oh great, another hour in that hot ass house .. I sure hope not. The air is on 72ยบ .. why is it so hot in here?

Do you want pain relief for sore muscles or joints? How about Arthritis? Many of us do. Now you can do it the all natural way. Check out Freeze It Gel and the little testimonial that I did for the stuff. I did end up using it after I made Ern try it out first. My little ginnie pig hehe .. He loved it so I tried it when I had sore muscles after working out. Good stuff. It worked fast and had no stinky after smell. So here it is .. my video. I may do another one if I end up not loving this one. And if you are looking for topical pain relief, try FreezeIt.


Almost Ready to Camp Out

Posted in General Hub Bub by Green People on the September 27th, 2007

We are almost packed and ready to go. We set aside more money than we thought we would need for the Meatstock trip and this should prove to be a great little getaway. We wanted to go in style and have everything that would help us relax so we also decided to do a show for our podcasts while we are out there. We will have all of our creature comforts and a video camera with a recharged battery and the laptop. Yeah that doesn’t really sound like camping but it will be a good time. I can’t wait.

We are going to do a little more shopping today for some fire wood and a power inverter to charge the camera batteries up so we can get tons of video and pictures. We are going to miss the boys so much since they are not going on this trip with us. They will have a blast to though since they are going to their Nina and Ninos house for the weekend.

We are taking the Whirled Glass show on the road and getting in our mini van, sending the kids off to the grandparents and getting our grill on. For two nights we are going to be chilling and eating meat. YEAH. Not too many hippies are meat eaters and to them we say .. come to Cheesestock when it comes. Or do you not eat cheese either?
