Hiking

Hi everyone. As promised, pictures and stories will resume in April. I'm looking forward to sharing some stories from March, beginning with a mountain hike from last week. Our campus is nestled on the south end of Yuelu Mountain -- a giant hill or small mountain that we have climbed many times before, but only from the main gate, never from the many small trails on all sides. A handful of Drew's classmates met near the student dorms, the gateway to a staircase leading all the way to the top. I suppose the hike took about 40 minutes, and Titus unexpectedly walked the entire way. Jon was on my back in a carrier, and Mike got passed around between Drew's and others' arms. At the top we walked another 40 minutes along the crest, finally pausing for lunch at the north end. It was a beautiful day and just the right degree of physical exertion. 







That's it for today! Another story next time.
