Peaks and Pits of the Week
Pit: This week (and the last) were so incredibly busy. Think: working from 8am to 9pm every night.
Peak: Next week is spring break!! Allen and I will be taking a long road trip to Utah and Montana. I’ve never been to either place, so I’m super excited to go exploring and do lots of hiking and skiing while we’re there.
