didn't do ANY digging this weekend, and i spent the time on an 80 acre plot of land in rural Western PA. It was formerly a hydroponic pot farm that was seized by the Feds 2 years ago. There were 2 big greenhouses completely concealed by trees, with all sorts of secret rooms. The hydroponic tables and wiring/plumbing was all still intact. Some of the highlights included:FARM PUPPIES! chopping wood: building a fire: lighting the fire (s'mores related): plus swimming, Yuengling drinking, crazy drunken pickup truck rides around the property, shooting model rockets, meteor shower watching, horseshoes, and an absolutely ridiculous amount of eating. Here is a pic of the land, what you see in the picture to the trees in the distance is about 1/5th of it: And here's a hidden grow room in one of the barns: And another secret room in the barn: seriously one of the best weekends of my life.

My grandfather owned a bunch of farms, and visiting them was always a pleasure, although all the livestock was destined for the slaughter house, which he also owned. Good times at the family abattoir!
DigDug and I are happy to report that it got an amazing response, as did MorseCode's Gnarls/Gladys "Grapevine" mashup, DizzyBull's "WackyTacky," and my favorite M.I.A. biter, Tigarah. No "Let It Rain and Clear It Out" Harlem Shake dances were witnessed, but these things take time.
Mooney, you really should have stuck around to see the CNSM* in full effect.
On the downside, after the gig was over I ran over my own ankle with a huge cart carrying 4 speakers, power amp, two turntables in roadcases, case of CDs, two Axis-9s, a box of 45s, and a box of LPs. I now can't walk without massive pain. I love DJing.
