Picture dump

November 19, 2016

So the most interesting thing that's happened recently is the election, and I won't talk about that for two reasons: this isn't the place, and a lot of people are sick of hearing about it. 

That said, there's not a whole lot more that's been going on; some work, some clubs, some projects. There's been a cold front that's moved in (set to leave by Tuesday of this coming week) that dropped temperatures into the -20 to -30 C range, which is interesting in a way because it's colder than it usually would be in November, but this range doesn't really impress me anymore. And yes, this is a preview of how insufferable I will be when y'all whine about being cold when it hits 40. 

I took some pictures, though, so it's not all for nothing. 
Near Red Mountain, looking northwestish. 
Emily and our friend Ari at the top of Red Mountain
I couldn't feel my face and I don't think Emily could either, so if our smiles look odd, that's why. Not at all because we're secretly lizard people. 

On top of Red Mountain.

Looking away from Ulaangom, into the countryside. 
Emily and I crammed with three other people in the back of a Prius. 
The sun doesn't set so much as explode some days. 
CASH MONEY KITTY
My birthday party! Hooray!
He's a cute cat. 
That's Red Mountain to the left, there. It's about a two miles from our apartment. 
I took the two above pictures without knowing that the one below would also happen, but lo and behold, it happened. Welcome to life in the cloud.
