As part of a short-lived tradition, before classes began all of the PD students would go out to the beach to get to know each other before the year got too crazy.

I hiked the Kekekabic Trail in northern Minnesota with my dad and a couple of guys from White Bear. It was not long after the big blow-down up there so the trail was nearly impassible for many long stretches. It was also rediculously hot. I thought we were going to die, but looking back now it was a hell of an adventure.
