Over 50 years ago, we were first year students at Hollins College. Through all the trials and tribulations and life’s many celebrations, a core group of friends has stayed in touch and stayed a part of each other’s lives.
Our college hosts reunions every five years but that’s not often enough for us, so we have our own mini-reunions. Last time it was in Florida, this time it’s in Cavendish, Vermont. Eight of us were able to make it coming from South Carolina, Virginia, Arizona, Florida, Oklahoma, Texas, Delaware, and Maine.
I drove and along the way had a chance to see twinges of turning leaves on this crisp autumn day. I stopped at Vermont’s Welcome Center to take a photo, but there were so many views more gorgeous than this: lakes, rivers, blue mountains, vibrant gold-colored leaves. I love autumn.
