My first “class” (only kind of a class since it’s an interesting seminar with free dinner) is tomorrow and will signal the end of my winter break. I’m definitely excited to jump into the new year – the last 2 terms at Caltech, hopefully a grad school acceptance letter, and lots of new adventures. I’d [...]

Still Snowing...

We now have about 8 inches at our house, which is less than 100ft above sea level. And it’s still snowing. Snowy house To distract myself from worrying about my flight tomorrow, Maddy and I went sledding. It was sweet. Maddy also built a snow daschund, which is also pretty sweet. Setting up for the [...]

Watch funny videos on the internet! These are two of my absolute favorites and I hadn’t watched them in a while, but they’re just as good as they were the first time I saw them. Enjoy! Here’s the original, “Lazy Sunday”: [vodpod id=Groupvideo.1881816&w=425&h=350&fv=] And here’s the West Coast response, “Lazy Monday”: [vodpod id=Groupvideo.1881828&w=425&h=350&fv=width%3D480%26height%3D392%26mediaId%3D11196%26affiliateId%3D0%26javascriptContext%3Dtrue%26skinURL%3Dhttp%3A%2F%2Fflash.revver.com%2Fplayer%2F1.0%2Fskins%2FDefault_Raster.swf%26skinImgURL%3Dhttp%3A%2F%2Fflash.revver.com%2Fplayer%2F1.0%2Fskins%2Fnight_skin.png%26actionBarSkinURL%3Dhttp%3A%2F%2Fflash.revver.com%2Fplayer%2F1.0%2Fskins%2FDefaultNavBarSkin.swf%26resizeVideo%3DTrue] Lizzy

Snow in Washington

The forecasts came true and now there is snow all over Washington. I think the Arlington area got the most – over 2 feet according to the news. Redmond, where I grew up, got around a foot. Here in Poulsbo we only got a couple inches, but everything still looks beautiful. Some photos: These photos [...]

It's Finally Winter in California...

After weeks and weeks of sunny weather and 80-90 degree temps, we were beginning to wonder if “winter” just wasn’t going to happen in SoCal this year. But now, apparently, it has arrived. As I’m sitting here in Luke’s (cold!) house in San Diego, it’s raining and windy outside in a way that makes me [...]

Maine Wedding

Adam, one of my best friends and climbing partner from Bucknell got married this past weekend. Lizzy and I flew out to the east coast for the ceremony and a bit of pre-wedding climbing. We were able to see my mom in Boston on Wednesday for dinner and then drove up to Rumney Thursday morning [...]

Fourth of July at The Needles
