MHSS Alan likes the summer (sometimes)

I'll make no secret that fall & winter are my two favorite times of the year: chilly breezes, warm chestnuts and hot apple cider, frolicking in the snow and the fallen leaves, Sukkot and Thanksgiving, Chanuka and New Years.

But I must say: this summer was not too shabby! We went to the beach. We went on hikes. We're going camping soon with MHs Philly & Hoboken! I rode my bike all over and acquired an awesome picture on my facebook of me on the National Mall with a sunset sky (approx. 8:30pm) behind my head.

Our new MHSS Moishketeers, Aaron & Lindsay, have jumped right in to the project with gusto. They are awesome and deserve to be accoladed publicly. Other MHers in the Eastern Region will get to meet them this Sunday at our Regional Retreat.

One thing that hasn't satisfied me is the lack of Shabbat programming lately in the Moishe House here in S.S. Maryland. We've all been so busy on the weekends with other stuff going on that we haven't had a living room-style Kabbalat Shabbat or relaxing late-night-extending chill and chuckley home-cooked Shabbat Dinner in a while! Next month we will change that!
