IAB Stairwell
We were getting situated, had just grabbed pastries, and about to do a mic check for that morning's midterm briefing when the fire alarm went off. Fifteenth floor!

My workshop group celebrated a classmate's birthday with a breakfast spread and, surprise, some schoolwork!

Daily Snap: D is for
Mudd Hall, Columbia University
D is for my dad: he visited the city to give a talk on ITER to the Applied Physics folks and a few SIPA classmates whom I lead astray.
Top of the Rock, Rockefeller Center
D is also for my new hand-me-down camera given to me by my dad as an early birthday present.In this shot he was taking a picture of me with the Empire State Building in the background when I noticed the reflection in his lens and said, "Wait, Dad, don't move!". This will make taking better photos (hopefully) easier and picking them out harder!
Daily Snap: Weather Report
View from my window
This is the view I get to gauge the weather outside. I'd say sunny with chance of fire escapes and air conditioners.

Daily Snap: Feast of Saint Francis
Cathedral of St. John the Divine
Yes, the photo is grainy because there was no flash photgraphy in church that day. Why? Because there were crazy animals in church that day instead! Camel, reindeer, yak, tortoise, wallaby, macaque, monkeys, llama, donkey, mini hourse, macaw, baby swans, chickens, ducks, bunnies, turkeys, Golden Eagle, Aplomado Falcon, service dog, AND people brought their pups, cats, gerbels, lizards, and I even saw a fish. And they were all blessed with one fell swoop.

Daily Snap: Doorway
Cathedral of St. John the Divine
That's a pretty serious doorway. I hadn't seen evening light on it yet since I'm usually there in the morning.
Daily Snap: Overpass
View of St. Paul's Chapel from the overpass
This is probably the fanciest overpass I've been on, come to think of it. It connects our building and the Law School to the rest of campus over Amsterdam Ave.
Daily Snap: Bait
Columbia's Faculty House
I took the "free personal pan pizza" bait and checked out the re-opened Faculty House. It's got a nice view of Morningside Park, the Upper West Side, and of my Urban Water Infrastructure reading.
Daily Snap: Cold Spring
Hudson Highlands State Park, New York
I went on a hike with a group from the Cathedral and it didn't even rain on our parade. We hiked up for the view of Cold Spring, the Hudson, and Westpoint across the way.

Daily Snap: Question
My room
Today's shot of a postcard sent to C came in handy not because this postcard got caught in the rain but because the pictures ended up being the only ones I took all day. Etsy has fun postcards, by the way.
