Buenas dias. Que tal? Thanks for stopping by. My name is Lawton Grinter and this is my weblog. My other name is Disco and this is his weblog too. I was born in the Old Dominion and grew up in a southern town with a Peachoid.


I currently live in the Last Great Colorado Ski Town and spend most of my time hiking and trail running when I'm not hangin' out with P.O.D. or spending time on Twitter.

Tahoe Rim Trail

Tomorrow P.O.D. and I start a 165-mile hike of the Tahoe Rim Trail in California/Nevada. We are basing out of a friend's house in Tahoe City. They live 2 miles from the TRT and I went for a run up to the trail this afternoon. Sometimes I really wish my friends and family could see what I'm looking at on some of these runs . . . today it was a quiet run through tall pines and cedars as light snow fell . . . the only sounds being the crunch of damp pine needles under my feet . . . the pine needles and cedar foliage frosting up with snow as the run progressed. Got to the TRT and turned around to bomb back downhill towards their house. 4.4 miles round trip. Gotta stay loose for this hike.

This blog will pretty much be non-existent till the hike is done . . . in about 9 or 10 days. I'll be posting some stuff on trailjournals.com after the hike is over.

Gone hiking . . .
