Rileigh Forslund, Hospitality Major

This picture was taken in Naples, Maine. It was taken one of the first times I had ever been to this spot and the first time I had

been there at sundown (my favorite time of the day). Getting to spend time outside, even if it’s 10 minutes a day, means the world

to me. I feel that some don’t see the beauty in taking time to be in nature in today’s world because we have grown so accustomed

to having media, sound, and technology in our realities 24/7. It can be hard for us to put down our phones, close the laptop, and

leave the AC to go outside where it’s quiet and slow, alone with our thoughts and ourselves.
