Dear October,
It is after midnight (so
technically, the 18th) and I am at a Holiday Inn in Chicago with the
Coe College writing center. We are
here for a conference hosted by the Writing Centers of the Midwest, which I did
not know was an organization that even existed until I learned about the conference.
We left Coe at 4pm and arrived at our destination at 11:30…so needless to say
there was much traffic, detours, and pit stops. At one point we turned around
in a Lowe’s parking lot and the drivers insisted on stopping at every stop sign
in the lot, even though it was completely empty. I had Subway for dinner. Even
though we were all somewhat delirious upon stumbling out of the vans in front
of the Holiday Inn, it was all worth it. Tomorrow is our first day of the
conference, and I promise to give you a much better recap then. For now, enjoy
looking at the amazing sunset over the Mississippi River!
Laura
