What a lovely fall break this has been! I am on a farm in Boscobel, Wisconsin, surrounded by rolling hills and trees with orange leaves and cattle and barns. Here, I have found a little piece of home. The scenery is different, and the people are different. But in little corners I have found aspects of where I live: cattle calling across the pasture for their calves, a brilliant sunset, worship music coming from the piano, and most of all, peace.
This morning, I met one of my best friends (and her sister!) for coffee and a spontaneous thrift store run. I love it when you don't think you will see someone for months, and then suddenly it happens that you will see them right away! It was lovely.
Tomorrow, we go back to Hillsdale. Back to class, and homework, and people, and stress. I am very much thankful for these few days to take a deep breath, relax and remember how good God is.
