Thanks!




A former english teacher of mine sent me a lovely package of cookies!

They were delicious and were a godsend.

I picked up the surprise package at a time when I had barely eaten lunch and was worried about an animal science prelim exam I had to take later that day. I opened the package and there were COOKIES AND FUDGE!!!



I just had to share my happiness with all of you.

Thank you Ms. K!

And just so you know, I AM eating well. Don't worry. It was just one of those days when studying take up all the time you have in the day.

Ithaca Autumn: the suspension bridge!!!


The last part of our Sunday adventure was the visit the suspension bridge and gorge on west campus.


To get to West Campus, you need to go down Libe Slope. You don't want to go up this hill, trust me.
A chubby bird! A brown creeper.

Some bugs the Entomology Dept wanted. Jake collected them.

Finally! The suspension bridge. It doesnt shake very much unless people run across it.




There's Cayuga Lake, I think.

Ithaca Autumn: Beebe Lake!


This is the lake dividing North Campus from the rest of campus. These are the gorges I need to walk across each day.



Here was the beginning of our Sunday adventure. We walked around Beebe Lake before we moved onto other areas of campus.

You can see the foot bridge and the big bridge behind it.

Pretty!


I named him Victor.


A bee hive! Scary.
