I spent this past weekend in New Haven, CT at the Yale with Ashley and Kris. It was quite the entertaining experience.

Here are some of the photographs of the weekend. You can find all photos on http://ian3.net, this is technically just a re-blog.

Today, for the first time in probably 9 months (I’m pregnant with vacation), I had an entire day off. Oh, that’s amazing!! Ian takes a day off from work!

Well, technically I didn’t take the day off. I had the day off because it’s Martin Luther King Jr. Day, and well, I was off from work to observe the holiday. Everyone at the company was, for the most part. While I should have been an active member of society, going out and respecting the world in which we live in today, which is constantly improving… I decided against it.

I did nothing. Absolutely nothing. In fact, I watched 4 movies today. I was in my bed, in complete darkness, with the shades drawn, watching movies. It was fantastic.

I can hardly feel my body, I am so numb from relaxation I don’t even know what to do with myself. Should I be happy? Should I be confused? Well, I am confused… but how should I react?

Somebody help me, this is too awesome to understand!!!

I had never been to Detroit, Michigan before… until this past Saturday. Unfortunately I had the pleasure of visiting this city for the North American International Auto Show, or as some call it, the Detroit Auto Show.

According to the locals that I met, Detroit is literally nothing but the headquarters for GM. The area below, circled in red, is GM’s headquarters. The blue circle is the convention center. The only two places deemed safe to be for many.

Each day as we entered the convention center, there were crowds of police, bomb sniffing dogs inspecting every bag coming into the building. It’s completely unheard of for people to be outdoors during the night, past maybe 6 PM. One of our cab drivers actually laughed at us when we mentioned wanting to visit a bar after working.

Directly across the river from the hotel is Canada, which did nothing but shine light on how miserable the city of Detroit is. It seemed like land of beauty, despite the numerous smoke stacks and factories puffing smoke into the skies along the border.

Feel free to roam around the two buildings I spent 99% of my time in.

As I was riding up to Windham Mountain this weekend for snowboarding, we noticed this eerie looking cloud hovering over the mountain. These shots are taken from the back side of Windham, on the road up to the mountain.
