Not that it&#8217;s totally over &#8211; I&#8217;m going to savor any more warm weather we may get &#8211; but it really did seem to go by quickly this year.<\/p>\n<p>BN and I took a few camping trips earlier in the summer. That was nice, to get away. I&#8217;m happy to announce that BN completed his PhD in Math from the U of O! I am very proud of him for sticking with it through thick and thin, mostly thin, and I&#8217;m excited to see what&#8217;s next for us. We are moving out of Student Housing week after next, to a place north of downtown but still close enough for bike rides to the market, library, etc. BN will be job-hunting, and then it&#8217;s pretty wide open where we could end up.<\/p>\n<p>My sister GC came to visit us. She was here during BN&#8217;s big thesis defense presentation, so she joined us in celebrating by swimming, camping, whitewater rafting, and blueberry picking. That was a ton of fun.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/15197746@N03\/4956281928\/\" title=\"GinnyVisit by fidget kt, on Flickr\"><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/farm5.static.flickr.com\/4091\/4956281928_f8d77b8f98.jpg\" width=\"450\" height=\"338\" alt=\"GinnyVisit\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Then we went camping in Lassen with my parents and my 4 youngest siblings.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/15197746@N03\/4955688983\/\" title=\"Lassen2010_hike by fidget kt, on Flickr\"><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/farm5.static.flickr.com\/4123\/4955688983_e1223d6484.jpg\" width=\"450\" height=\"300\" alt=\"Lassen2010_hike\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/15197746@N03\/4956280874\/\" title=\"Lassen2010_withmom by fidget kt, on Flickr\"><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/farm5.static.flickr.com\/4154\/4956280874_f073d014d5.jpg\" width=\"450\" height=\"300\" alt=\"Lassen2010_withmom\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/15197746@N03\/4955689157\/\" title=\"Lassen2010_creek by fidget kt, on Flickr\"><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/farm5.static.flickr.com\/4103\/4955689157_16486790b3.jpg\" width=\"450\" height=\"300\" alt=\"Lassen2010_creek\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/15197746@N03\/4956281756\/\" title=\"Lassen2010_sisters by fidget kt, on Flickr\"><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/farm5.static.flickr.com\/4109\/4956281756_98448e4948.jpg\" width=\"450\" height=\"338\" alt=\"Lassen2010_sisters\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/15197746@N03\/4956281062\/\" title=\"Lassen2010_BN_RC by fidget kt, on Flickr\"><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/farm5.static.flickr.com\/4112\/4956281062_33b6c09110.jpg\" width=\"450\" height=\"300\" alt=\"Lassen2010_BN_RC\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>One of the major highlights was hiking to the Mount Lassen Summit in time to see the sunrise.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/15197746@N03\/4955689333\/\" title=\"Lassen2010_summit2 by fidget kt, on Flickr\"><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/farm5.static.flickr.com\/4085\/4955689333_b031e465b0_m.jpg\" width=\"158\" height=\"210\" alt=\"Lassen2010_summit2\" \/><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/15197746@N03\/4956281234\/\" title=\"Lassen2010_summit1 by fidget kt, on Flickr\"><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/farm5.static.flickr.com\/4085\/4956281234_b69fe84790_m.jpg\" width=\"280\" height=\"210\" alt=\"Lassen2010_summit1\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>We also rock climbed&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/15197746@N03\/4955689715\/\" title=\"Lassen2010_climb_BN by fidget kt, on Flickr\"><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/farm5.static.flickr.com\/4108\/4955689715_f8f9a88f39_m.jpg\" width=\"220\" height=\"292\" alt=\"Lassen2010_climb_BN\" \/><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/15197746@N03\/4955689597\/\" title=\"Lassen2010_climb_KT by fidget kt, on Flickr\"><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/farm5.static.flickr.com\/4148\/4955689597_2ecacc857e_m.jpg\" width=\"220\" height=\"292\" alt=\"Lassen2010_climb_KT\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&#8230; played games, made music, swam in the lake, hiked around, and generally had a wonderful time.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/15197746@N03\/4956281590\/\" title=\"Lassen2010_music by fidget kt, on Flickr\"><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/farm5.static.flickr.com\/4112\/4956281590_247b7ae8ce.jpg\" width=\"450\" height=\"338\" alt=\"Lassen2010_music\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>That was my summer.
