Today is the final Tues-Thurs class of the spring semester. Not a cloud in the sky. Beautiful blue sky, around 65 degrees. Totally perfect. Unless of course you are trying to finish projects and papers and start studying for finals and aren’t outside to enjoy […]
And you can tell it, too. I was on campus yesterday and spent a few minutes in the library. Lots of students. Lots of low-maintenance clothing (think workout gear). Lots of people with coffee and wearing their ‘hard at work’ faces. Speaking of finals […]
