This is the first week of classes for the beginning of the academic year.
In preparation for a busy semester, I took last week off work (my last four posts were automated) and visited my son in Canberra (where I grew up) and spent some time hiking in one of my favourite places, Kosciusko National Park. One photo is below. This reminded me of the importance of vacations and down time, of the therapeutic value of the nature drug, and of turning off your email occasionally.
