Check

Snow adventure. Check!


Ravines, conquered. Icy inclines, mastered.Moon, breathtaking. Me, happy. Yes sir, it was a good night.


An environmental studies girl from my floor invited me to go with the RSOP group on a snowshoe trip tonight (until it became too slushy and turned into a hiking trip). So, it was just me, her, and 3 graduate student guides, clomping along in the beautiful outdoors. Stopping to listen to silence and the sound of gushing water. Gazing at cliffs and big pine trees and examining the waxing moon. Nothing like some nature to bring peace.


That's why I want to get to know lots of different types of people. The lovely ones I was with tonight were the practical wisdom and take life slow and easy type. They just simply were and didn't rush through life. They just enjoyed moment by moment and saw the beauty around them. They took time to listen.


...Silence..........
