My hiking group climbed up the ski basin today, and had this view at our back. The view from the top of the trail, Gayway, is mind-numbingly beautiful.
Good conversation today too as I met an Astronomy Ph.D. who works at the Lab. It was fun to delve back into my SJC junior and (mostly) senior year mathematics and lab to talk through some of the major issues in his field.
Otherwise this weekend I've been working through a little Joseph Campbell, a little of Ted Connover's book New Jack wherein he takes the job as a New York State Corrections Officer and writes about his experience.
I caught Happy-Go-Lucky this weekend, which was a really wonderful movie I highly recommened. I hadn't ever seen anything by Mike Leigh, but now I'm a fan. Apparently he never has a very firmly written screenplay, but rather a lose idea of what he wants to do, then lets his actors/actresses improvise. I'm excited to see more of his work.
Dow 7000 this week? There is a good chance. After that point though, we should be ok for a few months.
Thanks for checking in.
