Tonight, I noticed the sunlight, all yellow and pink and gold, as I drove down a tiny back road to my favorite pizza place, and I wondered if the earliest settlers had also admired the colors of the sun, the ivy on the trees, the beauty of the humidity, the smell of Virginia in summer. I still have my seminar paper to complete, but I can see the light at the end of the tunnel. Despite the hours that I've spent writing alone in my room, and the morning I spent in Swem writing, it already feels more like summer here. Tomorrow night, I hope to have finished the paper, to have breathed a sigh of relief, and to take a novel and glass of sweet tea out to the screened in porch.
