Trees, leaves, and lakes Oh, My!







Yesterday, I got to experience the true beauty of an east coast autumn. This week is what is know as 'reading week' as it is the week before midterms. We get the whole week off from classes in order to study. A bunch of people came up with the idea that it would be fun to go on a one night camping trip. The idea became actuality and a group of ten of us went camping thursday night at Fahnestock state park in upstate New York. We arrived early enough in the day that we were able to go for a long walk through the woods and along the lake. It was a gooooorgeous day!
The evening was filled with sitting around the campfire, telling stories, debating theology, the Church and playing games (ex. mafia). It is great to play youth games with Graduate students the amount of rhetoric that is brought into the equation is amazing!

All in all we had a great time away from campus and our books, now back to studying.
