I had a very nice weekend.

Oregon is beautiful. I spent Saturday winding through mountain roads, driving across the expanse of farmhouses and orchards, layed on the beach by the seastacks, and strolled along downtown Portland. Mom time was filled with artisan coffee, books, and good conversation. What a beautiful life I lead, I say. 

There are blue skies out! This calls for jump rope and possibly some studying on the lawn. I've been very busy in though and planning lately, and it's coming the time where I need to carry them out. That being said, I will be increasingly busy the next few weeks with papers and research and proposals and final exams. 

Diving in, full speed.
