Down from the mountain
I'm making my way back home after having had a great time away, including no access to the Internet, e-mail, or telephone. I hope to post more extensive descriptions upon my return.
In the meantime, here is a summary of some of the readings and discussions I participated in: Living the Leap. (I highly recommend the novel Old School, by Tobias Wolff.)
While the Leap program was part of the reason I came to Holden, the entire experience compassed much more—beginning with spectacular hiking amidst the flaming yellow autumn trees.
