our weekend

in the words of one of our orthos was, "magical" (although when he uses it, it is in a sarcastic tone, this is not).  more to come later on that.  
today we hiked harvard.
last night was exciting, it was hard to go to bed, it was hard to get up....so we got up an hr late and ran out of here, barely making it back for my church pre-school duties.
i digress.
we set out to hike harvard & columbia.  it's 12.5 miles to do harvard, 13.5 or something to do columbia.  why not do them both?
dallas headed up the valley

looking west of harvard.  there was a lot of low laying clouds and the moon was still out.  it was amazing

looking across the valley.  the south side of harvard faces yale

was really trying to get a self portrait but found myself turning around and looking for dallas

who was coming down from the boulders
we tried.  but after trying the traverse, much of it boulder climbing on melting snow we turned around as it was going to take us all day.  plus my hands were numb (i'm a cold weenie).

with a little dusting on the mtns they were in spectacular form.  this was one of the most scenic hikes i've done.  definitely worth every step!
