finding fun on campus

i've come to realize lately that christopher and i really haven't gotten out to see much of anything in palo alto, san francisco, or any of the nearby parts of california.

we've done a few things.  but only a few out of a million.

the reason?  we always seem to find something super fun and super free and super close on campus!

here are a few pictures.

the art museum on campus.  we especially enjoyed the rodin tour.  i've always liked sculptures.  we also especially took four seconds to walk through the contemporary art.  we've never been so appreciative of that sort of stuff so we'll save it for when we're desperate.

this is from our hike in the stanford foothills... commonly called "hiking the dish"

that tower in the distance is in the center of campus

 it really has a pride and prejudice sort of feel to it.  very natural.

this is the actual "dish"

one last picture on our way out

2.14.10 happy valentines day to you from us at the top of the dish!

so there you have it.  my two favorite dates from the past two weekends.  and i'll let you know in advance what my favorite date from this weekend will be...

it involves hockey in vancouver!  yup, as of 6:30 thursday evening, our wheels will be headed north for the olympics!  my honey sure keeps me young!
