Avalanche Lake, Rodeo and closing on our home.

Today, Lily, Swathi, Sruthi and Mani got up early to hike Avalanche Lake. Lily was so taken by the beauty of the scenery that we ended up doing it again later as a family.

Back at home, Clark watched the children while I worked. After Lily and the group got home, she went on a hike with everyone while I worked, and some of the group took the skytram down the mountain.

In the evening, Lily and I took our kids plus Soren to the rodeo. Lily and Mary were particularly disgusted by the cruelty to the animals. I felt a little bad as well, but I also genuinely enjoyed the spectacle. It was incredibly entertaining and the skill of the Cowboys and Cowgirls was incredibly impressive.

Also, earlier today, Lily and I signed all the final paperwork to close on our home. I’m so profoundly grateful to be done with the process, that it sold for so much, and that there was such a good team in place to get it done.
