Five Months is Over.

I'm back in Wyoming after my five months. There are so many entries I missed making that I hope to fill in some of the blanks as time permits. Missing: a weekend on Loch Hourn and climbing Ladhar Bheinn with Roy and Marta Bilkova; a weekend on Skye with Penelope and hiking the Quaraing and climbing Bla Bheinn; a weekend with Penelope on the Isle of Mull climbing the classic scrambling route via A'Chioch on Ben More and visiting the island of Iona.

Missing also is an account of golf in St Andrews with Alexander Konovalov and Peter Nightingale. An evening at the Scotch Malt Whisky Society in Edinburgh with Edwin Brady. A second (unsuccessful) attempt at Salmon on the Tweed gratis Allen Brady (Edwin's father) including a Spey casting lesson from Andy Murray.

For all the fun I had, I also got top quality technical work done with Ian Gent, Peter Nightingale, Roy Dyckhoff and Edwin Brady (publications forthcoming.) Thanks also to Kevin Hammond and his functional programming language research group.

Now that I'm intermittently blogging, check out Old Gunkie in WY, my new one.
