Happy Feast of St. Francis! etc

I've never seen the friars here so happy as they are today on the feast of their patron. It's really just darling how they just walk around smiling all the time. Like Buddy the Elf in a TOR habit.

In other news, midterms are going well. Starting Friday we have our first of two 10-day breaks. Plans aren't finalized yet, but it looks like I'll be going with a few other girls to Bavaria for a few days, followed by a stop in Switzerland for cathedrals and a chocolate factory, then on down to northern Italy.

Not much other news, besides my recent induction to the Austrian chapter of Sherpas. Thank you, thank you, yes, it's very exciting. Here are some snapshots from last weekend's mountain run..."Keep running, there ain't gonna be no Yelnats the fifth!"

...oh, nevermind.



Off to study!

God bless,
Mary
