Today was the kind of day I like in New Orleans. It was hot earlier on, but then the rain began to come down in the afternoon. Everything got real cool and damp, and I sat out on my porch drinking coffee in the wicker rocking chair and listening to the rain fall on the roof. I really love how everything stays so green in the summer here. On the porch I felt as if I lived in the tropics as I was encased by all sorts of bright green leaves and exotic plants from the garden. The grass is lush and thick and matted and such a deep of green. In Seattle, the grass got dry and brown in the summer. For all our mountains and hills and ocean views we never had grass like this. But ohhh...when you found yourself in those far off places with all the space and distance and cool air, it could be something really special.

I start university tommorow. This summer I left the Mailbag, got a driver's license, hung out with Kathryn almost everyday, and Brittany flaked out on going to the beach. That's pretty much it.
