Journeys home
Dec. 3rd, 2008 09:48 pmI'm not the only one who thinks the hill is magical...
Last night, on the way down the hill, Hyejeon and I saw some animals on the path, which moved off as we approached. Neither of us could see what they were. They seemed too stocky to be deer, and to move too noisily and not gracefully enough. However, if they were bears, they were only the size of semi-grown cubs. I think cougars tend to be lone beasts. They were probably deer, but I'll never be sure.
Tonight, stepping out of the Institute, the moon was a bright cresent against an especially lovely soft lilac sky. Later on, when it was dark, Venus and Jupiter were bright disks near the moon, and just for a moment, the white light of a plane passed by, making a perfect line of three stars.
