Move in day

Today is move in day at our local university.  It is the biggest freshmen class ever, and I can only imagine what it looks like in town.  I'll get to find out later this afternoon though, as I have a meeting at church.  I'm planning to leave about 1/2 prior to the beginning to make the 2 mile drive.  Sadly, I'm not joking.  It is ridiculously crazy.

Ironically, it was exactly 23 years ago today that I was one of these freshmen moving onto this very campus.  My goodness, it doesn't seem as though nearly a quarter of a century has passed since that day.  There are still things I vividly remember for that day.  I remember that I drove down with my mom and my sister and grandmother drove down separately.  Dad had to work, but he and my sister made another trip down over the weekend.  I'm excited for the students are beginning their college careers today, but I'm not excited about the traffic!
