Suggested Blog Reading For the Snowed-in and Extremely Bored

Feels like I have mono (though I could just be really bored), a major snowstorm is beginning to take shape outside, and I have nothing particularly interesting to say today. Therefore, I’m in full blog-reading catch-up mode. Here’s a few posts from my favorite bloggers that I think you’ll enjoy:

– Dave over at Compass Points strikes a familiar chord about the stresses of spousal trip planning.

501 Places — a cool travel blog — hits the proverbial nail on the head with 6 Tips For Successful Complaining.

– Outside blogger Alan Arnette talks about the search for a camera on Everest that could prove Mallory was the first to summit.

– National Geographic Adventure folded last month, but as they promised, they’re back with some web content, which is cool.

– Toney Farley — creator of Beautiful Places in HD – spices things up with some face time on camera in his new episode, Hiking: Crater Lake.

Wend Magazine’s blog tells you how to get free condoms from Climb Addict so you can “keep climbing, not parenting.”

– The Daily Dirt gives a good review of the new movie, The North Face.

Anybody else camping out on the couch with the laptop today? If you see anything interesting for me to read/watch, feel free to add it in the comments. Thanks!

I think another great spot to check out is the Dirtbag Diaries. http://www.dirtbagdiaries.com/ It is really a podcast and not a blog but if your on the computer than it works. They are also starting a video series called Seasons. http://www.theseasontv.com/
