The Willamette University Quad facing Smith auditorium

Right now I am sitting in the quad of Willamette University.  First of all the weather is absolutely rediclous1 it is incredibly hot! I am sitting in shorts and a t-shirt and dying of being this hot. It is almost November what is going on? But at least the weather is absolutely beautiful, there are absloulty no clouds in the sky and sun is brilliant. In the quad there are several group of people enjoying the weather like my self. A few clusters of Adirondack chairs with students studying and chatting with one another. There are also a few people whit had the bright idea of getting a tan in before the rain takes over. A family is throwing the ball for their German Shepard though the quad. Their baby cries out in the background from time to time. In the quad the grass is still deep green but the trees around me are still changing colors and all have the yellow brown tinted leaves beginning to take them over. The fallen leaves are also scattered through out the quad and litter the green with there has been brown. Along with the fallen leaves there are also chestnuts on the Eaton Waller side of the quad that have dropped from the great trees. Over all this is an abslouly gorgeous day to be outside, and I pity anyone who does not take advantage of this.
