Fun Friday... Almost Fun Saturday

So Friday was good. I spent the majority of my time at the internship working on the commercial that we just shot. My supervisor was only in for the morning, so he handed the tape off to me and had me start piecing it together, which was an exciting responsibility. I think I've actually gotten a decent start on it. Obviously, he'll have to do some final tweaking before it's really done, but I think I didn't do too shabby of a job for my first time editing a professional TV commercial. Not to mention the fact that I did it all on Avid, which I still just barely know my way around. If I confine myself to just simple cuts, though, I've pretty much got the shortcuts down, so I'm making progress.

Today was supposed to be spent out on the hiking trails, specifically Harney Peak, which is the highest mountain in South Dakota and the highest point in the USA east of the Rockies. But, the more I look at the weather forecasts for today, the more I'm thinking I'll be postponing that till next weekend. Everything I'm reading says mostly cloudy (some go as far as misty or foggy), with a slight chance of thunderstorms. I'm sure I'd still have a good time, but I'd rather postpone a possibly good time and wait for a more certain great time. And next week is supposed to be sunny, so I'm not worried.
