Dear Seth,

Well these are my last moments in the Washington DC area. I have loved it here, though it's been way hot. There is just too much to see in just a week. Maybe someday I'll be able to come back.

Now it's on to where my heart has always belonged, Charleston. This time tomorrow I'll be in Columbia waiting for 5 hours when Charleston is only 3 hours away. But it's worth it. God it feels like I'm truly going back home. I can't wait to see all the things that I've missed for the past 6 months. The pull is so great that if I could I'd fly there right now, no lie.

I'll be staying in the same hotel in Mt. Pleasant. The one by the lake where there are swings and I can listen to crickets and cicadas at night while watching the stars. Or I can go into the city and be at the pier looking at huge cargo ships passing by. I seriously cannot wait to be there.

I hope that you're having a great day and that things go smooth for you. Please don't forget to smile, it makes me feel so much better knowing that you are.

p.s. I love you
