A cloudy and overcast day, absolutely beautiful. We went to Junior's first playoff game. Junior is the local futbol club, and the won, 2-1.
Checklist for going to futbol game:
Bus pass, cash, camera. No wallet, no ring, no belt.
But the highlight of the day was something smaller, a simple
photo of 9,131’ peak on the back of a bus. A glimpse of home and the mountains in the middle of
Barranquilla.
Kevin T. and I on the top of the very same mountain, May 2009.
Mt. Shuksan for those of you who are still wondering=)

Colombia doesn't celebrate american thanksgiving, not surprising. Our school however does, so we are at the end of a 4 day weekend! Which included a thanksgiving dinner with some friends and two days of going into school to catch up, plan ahead, and start writing exams. Three more weeks and the semester is over, and I still need to finish putting together my 2013 calendar.
Footnotes 3
1 - Note, the blues were not drowned out, it is just really good beer, and something to celebrate when you are missing fall and good beer.
2 - I may like alliteration too much, but you have to admit that a 15 word complete sentence with every word starting with 'B' is pretty good.
3 - Footnotes are fun, thank you David Foster Wallace.
