Nora Livingston '07 was in
Lee Vining, working as an intern for the Mono
Lake Committee and reported, "I
can't describe how amazing it is being
welcomed so readily in this small Eastern
Sierra community, it's like Midland all over
again. Everyone I work with is great,
interesting, enthusiastic, outdoorsy, the
works. In the first few weeks of getting here
I have hiked, camped, backpacked, ran,
kayaked (down a rushing creek!), canoed,
swam, danced, yoga-ed, slack-lined, and rock
climbed."

Jim Morris '61 enjoyed a visit to
Midland in early September and met several of
the class of 2009, looked at the chapel
boards, checked out the Asagai spear that his
great uncle Fred Burnham brought back from
the Boer Wars, looked at the room he stayed
in his senior year (it was brand new then).
He reports, "I noticed a lot that was the
same and some that changed."
