top of the world via the windmill and the rooftop - photos

The windmill at Verite - the triangle shaped platform is our destination

aaron, amy, andy, and jules.... close quarters on the windmill.

Several of our group have frequented the top of the windmill (amy is guessing that it is 65 feet in the air) and I for the first time went up to see the sunset lastnight. Sunset to the west and a full moon in the east with some lightening to the north. It was an awe inspiring sight and somewhat fullfilling just to reach the top.

looking up at the windmill, from the platform, at dusk.

Then, after the windmill, we grabbed some chow --- the food is so good here, and it is so nice to have meals taken care of. I never have to make that dreaded decision of 'what should we have/make for dinner?' --- and then headed to the roof of the kitchen hall. Aaron serenaded us with his guitar and we did our best to remember the words to this and that song.

Zeno still donning his headlamp (an essential for nightime bike riding) made it back from a fundraiser at a new kindergarden, to sing some songs

Brenden --- look at those blue eyes -- roofing it... obviously feeling better as well!
