Are you a salmon or a cod?


Are you a salmon or a cod? That was the main question last night at West End in Elon. Much to the consternation of the attendees of the ubiquitous 'black-out' party and the Elon Rugby celebration, there were a bunch of slightly older folks celebrating for reasons all their own.

With orange hats bearing the Salmon Run House logo, we imbibed, made 'salmon runs' and generally confused all with our presence. Thanks to Steve and his Superbowl winnings for hosting the fete, Nick for taking the future bribery photos, Eric for allowing his apartment to be the sight of the salmon run, Stacy for protecting my bathroom door and generally providing humor and perspective, Denard for the swim...er...construction goggles, W, Molly, Jamian, Cheryl and Sarah for rounding out the festivities. A great time was had by all. We will be tracking down Nick and the camera film in the near future. Let's hear it for the Elon Rugby team and the "Days of the Week!"

As a Steve-designated 'salmon' - I swim upstream. This upcoming month I will be swimming up to Connecticut February 28th - March 2nd and March 7th-10th, to California March 14th-15th, to Connecticut March 16th and again March 29th-30th. Later in April I'll spend some time in Puerto Rico. W and I plan to make use of our frequent flyer miles, hotel points and car rental credits during a May trip to Colorado. Anyone have input on things that one MUST DO in Denver in the summer? Hikes, restaurants, shopping, breweries - we're open to suggestions.
