Wow, although it's been only 9 days since my last post, I've been up to a lot of crazy stuff. Here's just a highlight of last Friday - it was best illustrated by an email conversation I had with C:
M: It is so foggy today
C: How foggy is it?
M: It is so foggy today that I couldn't see the Lake from the Rim!
The is always visible from this point - there's nothing normally blocking the view
M: It is so cold today
C: How cold is it?
M: It is so cold today that a couple of cars had ice forming on them!my office is so cold today (it hit a high of like 50)
C: Is your office cold?
M: My office is cold today that I am contemplating running home and getting gloves so my fingers won't freeze while I type!
Here's the view from my office. Normally, there's a mountain out there
I didn't go home, I just kept on working. After tallying another 10 hour day to finish our rough draft, I went to watch the sunrise from atop Watchman Peak among the clouds.
