Pies, Pi
Plus How They Connect
There are many things tossed about on the ActiveRainLand playground. Kinda like life where various choices are constantly thrown our way. Once I moved on from a career in real estate sales, I learned the industry observer professional profile option was available on AR. As a longtime observer of life, the designation seemed to fit me.
I put away market reports, community updates and just listed/just sold posts. Fortunately, they weren't discarded but conveniently stored in the archived section on this site. And well-preserved - for the moment. Of course, other memories in my mind may not be as organized, but I am grateful many of them still survive. Both places are nice to visit.
Today happens to be Pi Day. While not one of the major March holidays, I have touched on it in the past. I have found the study of Pi 3.141592. . . an infinitely fascinating topic. Not to be confused with pie as a dessert (by the way, celebrated nationally with its own day on January 23).
The California Institute of Technology (CalTech) is a place for higher education in Pasadena where many very smart people pursue their passions in the world of science, mathematics and technology. I feel fortunate to have had it as a connection over the years. Beyond the benefits of professional and personal relationships with it, the beautiful tree-dotted campus might be the perfect place for pondering.
And it’s adjacent to some pretty special places to indulge in pie, too. The interconnectedness of many sorts of things continue to make life special even when calculating math is not being tested. At least that’s what I continue to observe.
The images included in this post are from the Caltech campus, canstockphoto.com and other unidentified but delicious remembrances. Once again, it’s a combination that continues to work for me. And today, like any day, has the potential to be a special occasion, right? Happy Pi Day. Or you can celebrate a much-belated National Pie Day.
