Bugs, Big Bugs

It's hard to believe that the school year ended just a week ago. I'm typing from this from Cambridge, MA, in my college roommate's apartment. For the next few days we'll be attending our 5th College Reunion. For the past few days, I've been camping and hiking in the White Mountains of New Hampshire. We were near, but not on, the Appalachian Trail, which, as my mom pointed out, was the site of my first backpacking trip the week before I started college.

A note about leaving comments: I left the settings as open as possible, so if you want to leave a comment you do not have to register for a blogspot or google account. That means it is possible to leave anonymous comments, but I'd love to know who is visiting and reading. If your comment will be anonymous, please at least sign your name! And as I've told a few of you, the more comments you leave, the more excited I'll be and the more posts I'll write. (It's like checking the mail and having a letter from a friend!)

And before I go (it's almost time for dinner in Harvard Square), here is today's challenge: guess the weight of my pack (pictured below, it's the purple one), in pounds, for the White Mountain backpacking adventure.

See you soon!
