And the Sun Sets…

Now that our last group of students has graduated, it has grown very quiet at NOLS Southwest. Most of our staff have moved into vacations or other bits of work. The rations room has been closed up, with everything put into storage. The issue room is a little quiter, as no one is here to play table tennis. The air is even a bit chillier and the wind a bit gustier as the sun sets over this past work season.
 

However, one can tell that all are excited for a brief winter hibernation filled with skiing, climbing, just relaxing or woodchopping. As the spring season rolls around, we will move into it rested and excited for the warm sun to return, new groups of students and a whole new round of challenges.
