Memorial Day

What a great Memorial Day. This morning I finally got around to hiking Runyon Canyon. Ben, Nick, and Lily went with me. You've probably seen the views below in movies or on TV. I was hoping to get some good exercise out of it, but it's a really short hike. It's amazing that you can get these kinds of views after walking for only about 30 minutes.





"Reading about nature is fine, but if a person walks in the woods and listens carefully, he can learn more that what is in books, for they speak with the voice of God."
- George Washington Carver

I made it home just in time to watch the UVa-Maryland National Lacrosse Championship (WAHOOWA!). Afterwards I hit the beach for about an hour and continued digging into C.S. Lewis's Mere Christianity. When I got back from the beach Ben invited us over to his place for a cookout - so good to eat something off of a grill again, I may just have to buy one for myself....
