Each day began with meeting bright and early to read our Bibles and ended with curious late-night discussions. Perfect bookends to any day, let alone four straight days. And in between: extensive walks, new friends, an impromptu party (a large gathering of friendly people at Seth's house eating their fill of delicious food prepared with a smile by his housemate, Brad) tennis, vintage stores, hidden bookshops, friendly animals, caffeinated drinks, porch-swings, more outstanding homemade meals, heartwarming hospitality, strange stories, much laughing... I'm not sure how visiting Seth at SCAD could have been any better, except that I wish I'd packed sunscreen. Also I could have done without the goodbyes at the end.
I don't know what else to do here except thank Seth and his friends for being so kind and generous... It really was a breath of fresh air. I mean the actual air was thick and muggy, but the people were absolutely lovely and I haven't felt so encouraged in a long time.

I was actually a little obsessed with these great girls and their adorable house. All three are studying fibers at SCAD.
Reid chopped some vegetables and later read us a book.
Thanks to Ashley for being a wonderful tour guide and photographing us with this nice donkey.
Tea was sipped, FIFA was played, National Geographic magazines were flipped through...
Another friendly shop pet.
I asked Seth to take a nice picture of us.
