Two weeks ago Seth went off to sunny California for the annual AMS meeting. While he was spending 5 days scoping out the sea lions, hippies, and Occupy protesters in San Francisco and Berkeley I was home hitting the books, working on presentations, and studying for exams. It is always strange being home alone for more than a few hours at a time (especially without Lorenzo for company), but the busy week was broken up with my own trip out of town for the annual church retreat to Vermont. It was mostly time to relax, gawk at all the wonderful scenery, and do some hiking up Magic Mountain (yes, that is its real name!).
Near the summit of Magic Mountain
Heading back down--it was steeper (and slipperier) than I recalled!
It was also pretty wet, so we let the pastor go first.
Sammy, who just came from Rwanda, saw his first icicles.
We were glad to return to the lodge before sunset (ie 4:20pm)
Everyone was busy painting on Sunday morning
Don't be fooled by the bunnies
