Last Topic of the Year, due by Sunday, June 7:

Perhaps its time to pick out some favorite memories of Pine Point. Let us know about three (or two, or one, or fifty) of your fond memories of your time at our school. Don't worry about choosing a favorite. Just describe a few good memories. (Feel free to do more than one post as memories come back to you.)

Remember to check the rubrics (to the right). Contributions to the forum can be brief, but must be well thought out and carefully written. No typos or grammar errors, please.

Sarah's Post about Winter Dreams

One of my favorite lines from Winter Dreams is, "Later in the afternoon the sun went down with a riotous swirl of gold and varying blues and scarlets, and left the dry, rustling night of Western summer." This line has such vivid imagery, that it brings me back to the summer days when I would watch the sunset with my cousins. Fitzgerald's imagery is one of his key strengths and uses it a lot through out his writing, but this one line really stood out to me.
