Dear W. S.,
Since you came to the University, the grounds have finally starting catching up to the beauty of the buildings and natural surroundings. I really love your work!
I know I spoke to you just a few weeks ago when we ran into each other on the new downtown trail. I thanked you then for the work you've accomplished here, but today I was so startled and delighted as I came off the highway that I went home, changed clothes, and headed right back (before the rain) to snap a few pictures.
Ever since the main entrance to campus was re-routed and the huge stone (and concrete?) sign went up with its bluish light thrown from a lumpy black box, I have averted my eyes and driven further down before turning off.
Today I didn't.
The sea of daffodils (also found in abundance on the campus this year) and the flood of crocus (I stopped counting at 63) have turned what I think is an eyesore into a welcome springtime delight.
Soon it'll be odonate time, and I look forward to running into at one of the lakes.
With appreciation,
Robley
