I took a trip down to the Baltimore/DC area this weekend. Friday I went to Ben and Ada's in Baltimore. Saturday I went with Ben to DC, and we met up with Will, checked out his dad's studio, played frisbee by the National Cathedral, got dinner, and then talked philosophy for a while. Sunday I went to croquet in Annapolis and saw a bunch of old friends--Mark, Christian, Marie, Chris Harris, and several others. It was a good time, and it was refreshing to leave Cambridge for a few days.
