University Park in Bloom
Our colleague John Rafacz ’82 over at the Center for the Performing Arts is a really good photographer, and the other day he posted some photos to his Facebook page of some of the spring flowers and blossoms around campus. Some of the shots were so good that I asked John to send them to me so I could post them here for you all to see.
So here are a dozen of John’s photos in slide-show form. Click on the image if you want to advance the photos manually.
Thanks, John!

Spring in Happy Valley
I was driving back from the printer in Virginia the other afternoon, and as I came up College Avenue, the light on Old Main and the daffodils in the lower Old Main lawn just seemed especially sweet. Of course, in the time it took me to go around the block and find a parking space, the sky clouded over a bit and suddenly Old Main wasn’t catching the light anymore. But still, I thought you might enjoy seeing the view; click on the photo to see a larger version.
While I was out of the car, I walked a few more yards down to the Allen Street gates, where some orange-colored tulips (those are tulips, right?) are in full bloom:
If you’re coming up for the Blue-White Game this weekend, you’re in for a treat. Some of the trees on campus are in blossom, and AccuWeather says we’re supposed to have a high of 74 on Friday and 82 on Saturday. Enjoy.
