Seventh Day: Back to Tucson and Relaxing

Today was a very short day, so this will likewise be a very short post. We got everything packed and managed to head out from the dorm on Mt. Bigelow before 2. Our car almost got hit by a diving Harris' Hawk at the bottom of the mountain, but it narrowly missed us. It was really cool to see, but I'm really mad at myself because I missed getting the perfect picture of the bird because my dang camera had gone into power-save mode and took too long to wake up. Once we were checked into our hotel I think everyone, myself included, thoroughly enjoyed a long shower, and we had an hour or so to relax before going to dinner at a great Mexican restaurant with Mrs. Staubitz, who donates generously to our physics department to fund this trip. Since I'm a photographer at heart and can't resist taking tons of pictures, I included a couple from the drive down Mt. Lemmon.
