There are many great perks that come along with Hyrum’s Microsoft Research internship. First perk-they bought us a bike so Hyrum could be “green” and bike to work. We are a bit far for him to bike to work, but he does take their connector bus that leaves from Monroe Fair Grounds (a second perk). Third perk-they gave us a lump sum to help pay our rent this summer, but since we’re rent-free at Ma & Pa Magelsens’, it has gone towards the visit-Gamma-and-Bampa-in-Ireland fund. Fourth perk-they plan great little trips so that we can be convinced to live in the northwest.
As part of the fourth perk, we took a trip to Mt. Rainier.
