2016A: Home

We all made it home safely. Carefully packing my purse the first time I left the house, I remembered my keys and phone… but forgot my wallet — oh yeah, you need money to acquire goods in the non-mountain economy! At least I remembered I DIDN’T need my flashlight.

This 3-song mashup is so beautiful that my head fills in the other 2 songs when I hear 1 of the songs on the radio:

2016A Day 22: Keep On Turning

Our last day at LCO (this time) was a critter filled day.

A Chilean rose tarantula was trying to snuggle with Laird in his bed. Laird said no. When last seen, the spider was headed towards Katie’s room, but then it disappeared.
A culebra de cola larga crossing the road. Don’t worry, they’re only moderately venomous.
On our last day we saw our first clean room vizzy. It’s not like we haven’t spent any time there.

The Guanaco herd, complete with youngun, made an appearance. The pictures didn’t turn out though.

Today we packed up a lot of stuff.

After all these years and stressful times, my advisor and I still enjoy bonding over packing and sorting.

Some things were more carefully packed than others.

I hope everybody reads the sign.

So long LCO. See you next time.

Don’t worry vizzy. This isn’t our last sunset at LCO. I promise.

Made of Silver. Once.
