calling all old school video game fans

One great thing about the Middle of Nowhere is that there plenty of space. Enough space for say, giant tetris pieces:
But these behemoths aren't just for decoration (to give you a sense of their size, check out the people standing atop the blue and black pieces). Climb aboard the blue piece at night and play as the actual game (along with your image) is projected onto the towering black piece.

Not sure if I should admit this, but in college we once used the projection room to show the Matrix on the big screen in one of the lecture halls in the physics building. Then we hooked up the video games. Stadium seating doesn't make for as dramatic a backdrop as the mountains, but we had fun nonetheless.

On an unrelated note, it was great seeing those of you in the classes of 2013 and 2014 today. Sounds like the middle school is having a great year so far. And good luck to the volleyball, football & golf teams!
