Sitting outside last class was a great change of pace from the norm. Being outdoors, with the warm sun and a nice breeze, makes any class in general a more comfortable place to be. Since I would rather be outside in nice weather than in a cold, dim lit classroom, I found I was able to follow along better and not have my mind wonder. (Although I do admit to zoning out a little bit and finding two 4 leaf clovers!)
Also, I'm extremely anxious to walk the Noland Trail today in class. Hiking is one of my favorite past times over the summer due to my close location to the Blue Ridge Mountains. I haven't been on a trail in a while, so getting to walk the Noland for an hour will not only satisfy my winter nature crave, but will also be nice to have Professor Redick there teaching us about things along the way. I hope to come out of class today with a bit more knowledge of my local environment.
