really got to my heart was how nice all the other students were to me.

"Nature is free to live and be beautiful all around here. Everywhere you look you see a piece of undisturbed nature living its lie peacefully; like heaven on Earth. The air in these mountains and hollows is as fresh as a billy goat's breath after he eats a peppermint."

"... Inconvenience helps. I can't buy dental floss in the county or get film developed or my pants pressed, and I wouldn't have it any other way. No babbling on cell phones everywhere. It's still real country, a minor miracle at that, being 65 miles from The City ... no malls, no strips, no chains, not even any Pepperidge Farm Bread."

"I first witnessed the wave while driving down Route 707 house hunting. There was a family outside a yellow farmhouse—a mom and dad and a couple little kids. I glanced at them as I whisked by.
Everybody waved. "Maybe they think I'm somebody else," I recall thinking. "Nobody waves anymore.”
Then I passed a pick-up and the driver waved. His wave was different—four fingers raised nonchalantly above the steering wheel. A friendly hello? How could I be sure? I stared at the driver of the next oncoming car. I was ready. Sure enough, she waved. And I waved back. Oh, my arm felt like one that's been slept on too long—but I managed to get the hand up there in time. It felt good! And that moment I fell in love with Rappahannock."
