L is for Lynchburg

We are headed out on a pre-summer road trip this evening. A goddaughter is graduating from high school down in Lynchburg, VA, and we are off to cheer her on. The ceremony will be held tomorrow morning at 10:30 out on the lawn of her school. Far from calling for rain, tomorrow's forecast is sunny and 95. 

Of course we hope that the day will heat up slowly, but it is 97 down there right now, so there's a chance that it will be warm and muggy from the get go. Even so and despite leaving the dog behind in the good hands of my brother, I'm looking forward to going somewhere, being somewhere, and seeing somewhere other than this old town. 

We were talking about the upcoming trip with a colleague whose son graduated from college in Lynchburg yesterday. "It is a pretty little town,: she declared, "despite the unfortunate name."

Life Lesson: Sometimes a change of scenery will do you well.
