Hike up Mt. Cardigan with the Oz Man, April 3, 2012 from Samurai Appliance Repair Man on Vimeo.
The Samurai and Oz man hiked up Mt. Cardigan via the Vistamount Trail and Mt. Gilman. Gorgeous day to be out! Very windy at the summit. The last clip is a small pan from the summit.
Awesome day for a late Fall hike in the Whites with The Oz Man. Clear trail until the ridge then about 4″ of slushy snow. Gaitors a must! Clear views on and off, depending on cloud blowage. Summit proper was engulfed in a cloud but good views elsewhere. Up and back via the Glenncliff Trail. Samurai Appliance Repair Man

Oh, the places the Samurai doth go to service broken appliances. This place had 50 mph gusts and -15°F temps. Can you believe this was a broken icemaker call? And there was no way to get my service van up there– believe me, I tried! No, I had to trudge four miles up the mountain on the Old Bridal Path through snow and clouds carrying all my tools on my back. Never did find the house, either. I think they gave me a bum address. Here’s a video of me looking for it.
Oy, I’m gettin’ too old for this bidness.

All this appliance repair talk is eating my brain! I’ve uploaded some pics from a few of my winter hikes this season. Best viewed in fullscreen mode. Turn your speakers up and click the thumbnail images below to watch the slideshows. Enjoy!

After you’ve been kicking around the Web a while, you find that you’ve scattered your photo albums among several photo-sharing websites. As newer, slicker photo storing websites come available, you start using them; I never bother to transfer my photos from the older sites, waaay too tedious and, besides, I have important things to do, like picking tuna from between my teeth or scratching my bum then seeing how long I can resist sniffing my fingers.
Anyway, I’ve consolidated all my vast and awesome galleries of appliance repair photo albums into one convenient little page with its own little domain name: ScrotumScrubber.com. Be there now.
