-<h2>Winter Solstice Greetings - 2017</h2>
-
-<p>
-Hello to all my friends and family.
-I hope that you are feeling peaceful, cozy, and happy in these winter months.
-As I write this letter, the ice fishing season has begun in Madison.
-Brave individuals have taken to the lake near my apartment to test their luck.
-</p>
-
-<p>
-I'm now in the middle of my 7th year of graduate school.
-Time flies, and I'm begrudgingly trying to wrap up this phase of my life.
-Not sure what comes next.
-</p>
-
-<p>
-My good friend Tyler graduated this spring.
-I am happy to see him move on to better things, but sad that we are no longer living in the same place.
-Perhaps life will bring us together again at a later date.
-In celebration, Tyler and I took a short vacation together.
-We camped at beautiful Wyalusing State Park---Tyler's first camping experience!
-The midwestern summer rains caught us, but we had fun despite the weather.
-We also visited House on the Rock and New Glarus Brewery.
-</p>
-
-<p>
-On August 21st of this year a total solar eclipse crossed much of the Continental US.
-My parents and I took this as an opportunity for family vacation.
-We visited the Land Between the Lakes National Recreation Area, at the intersection of Kentucky and Tennessee.
-After a bit of stress, we ended up finding a nice waterside campsite (below).
-The very large lakes were too large for our small Alumacraft, so we did not get much fishing done.
-I did get lots of reading done, and the time spent away was nice.
-The eclipse itself was pretty magical.
-The family (including Karaby) put on our swimsuits and waded into the lake to watch.

-In early October I traveled to beautiful Arcata to visit my good friend Claire and her husband, Ralph.
-Claire and Ralph have a wonderful home on a gravel road nestled among impossibly tall redwood trees.
-I enjoyed exploring Arcata and the nearby town of Eureka.
-Humboldt State, where Claire works, has interesting California architecture---one of Claire's colleagues has an office with only outdoor entrance!
-The local Ma-Le'l dunes (below) were interesting---very windy with alien landscape and flora.
-Making pasties and horchata, and enjoying Claire's famous pie, were the highlights of the trip for me.
