Rainier Exploration Badge

Between the Christmas break of Christmas Eve to New Year's day, I felt much like Gandalf's stint lost in time after fighting the Balrog: "“Darkness took me. And I strayed out of thought and time. Stars wheeled overhead, and every day was as long as the life age of the earth..." Essentially I did not do or accomplish a whole lot...

BUT - now we are back in the saddle and I am focused on being disciplined and productive. Generally, I have found that being more productive is simply a byproduct of being more disciplined. Discipline is a big focus this year. And life in general. 

Anyway, here's a little do-dad for Mount Rainier.
