Sometimes the simplest pictures turn out to be the best ones. From a hike around Griffy Lake yesterday: summer is here!

Ah, summer reading. What was once a bit of a chore during high school has become a habit and a delight now that I’m older. The biggest difference is that now I get to choose what I’m going to read! So without further ado, here’s a short list of books for the summer:

“A Long Obedience in the Same Direction” by Eugene Peterson (in progress)
“Sag Harbor” by Colston Whitehead
“Everything is Illuminated” by Jonathan Saffron Foer
“Once a Runner” by John L Parker
“Henderson the Rain King” by Saul Bellow and Dave Eggers
“Narnia and the Fields of Arbol: The Environmental Vision of C.S. Lewis” by Matthew Dickerson
“The Furious Longing of God” by Brennan Manning
“What is the What” by Dave Eggers
“The Four Loves” by C.S. Lewis
“Marathon” by Hal Higdon (how to train for 26.2!)
“Yours, Jack: Spiritual Direction from C.S. Lewis” by C.S. Lewis (a collection of his letters).

Ah, summer is finally here. I went camping last night at Yellowwood to kick off the summer properly. Since I changed the blog design the photos show up kind of small, so a reminder that if you click on them they’ll expand to full- screen.

More blogging to come now that exams are done!
