of rolling hills

[la_destinazione]

I have always found the Californian rolling hills to be one of the most amazing things on Earth ever... While not as majestic as mountain ranges like the Andes or the Alps, the Californian rolling hills have so much character in them. When fall and winter come, the endless weeping rain nourish the pastures and turn the rolling hills a happy green

Montyelm: The DISH area! I went up there on a walk one time, and as I was about to step across the gate, it started raining. And my NS-tuned brain tells me, "It's just going to be a drizzle, I will complete my walk."

Of course, the drizzle turned into a thunderstorm, with howling winds, lightning and sheets of rain, as I climbed up the hills. Just before you get to one of the crests, where you can see the Bay, and towards the South Bay, I was crazy enough to stop, take out my camera and shoot pictures, while trying to not get blown off.

Getting concerned about the lightning and the satellite dishes... but stupid me continues walking, even though my ears must be red like hell. By the time I got back down, the rain had stopped. The sun was out and there was a double rainbow.

Dumb mental tenacity for not turning back. But yes to those steep slopes. You think you reached the top, but no..... there is another slope right ahead of you. You see the 280, and you think that must be the top. Oh no.....

omg! you could have died! that's probably the best place to get struck by lightning in the whole campus!

well, but I guess the views and the double rainbow at the end must have made it worthwhile (think NS)...

congrats again by the way! can we go yum cha soon?

The geek in the MTV plays some character in Tina Fey's 30 Rock. I love that show!

See you when you get back!
