spent the long weekend at an event on campus and going back to school seems significantly more rewarding than going back to the silly valley rat race

I also went to a small rural school and had a graduating class of ~20 peoplequote:i didn't realize until i got to high school and started going on band/sports trips that it was actually pretty drat well-funded, well-maintained, and safe. it was also the opposite of this (well, it probably wasn't that dangerous); the teachers were either young and new and only there for what I assume would be loan forgiveness or resume building or something because they always disappeared after a couple years -- or they were old timers that had just been there forever and their own kids were going through the school and were likely there because like a significant portion of the white population of that school, they had a lot of family woven into the area we had significant growth in our hispanic population during my time there too and it was not handled well

I’m looking at all the mountains in the county. Feels good to have names for them. like that distinct one I keep driving by with the stripe, that’s Fortuna Mountain. there’s been some snow on cuyamaca, iron mountain and Palomar. planning to drive out to Julian tomorrow for a closer look

Silver Alicorn posted:I can find all the peaks now  but what if you don't have a signalquote:PeakFinder shows a 360° panoramic view from an arbitrary viewpoint of your choice. To render the panoramic views PeakFinder uses an elevation model that is integrated into the App. A database with a peak directory is included as well. For these reasons PeakFinder does not need an online connection for rendering the panoramic view and works completely offline from anywhere in the mountains.

The Fish and Wildlife cop that came into our hunter education class seemed like a pretty nice guy and seemed to genuinely care about the mission of maintaining the environment/enforcing limits on game
