Observing some rest

After the required weights session, the rest of our day was quiet. Early dinner, early to bed with a re-read of Le Guin's The Left Hand of Darkness, the first work of hers I read, long ago. Two of the main characters end up making an 800 mile sledge and ski trek across a huge ice age glacier on a planet far away. The contrast with our far less miserable climate wasn't comforting; it's just a story.
