Pictures of Princeton
I wandered around Princeton's campus today taking pictures. It was a beautiful bright morning. The flowers are out but the leaves are not, so Princeton's great buildings are visible in a way that they will not be even next weekend. Sample below, slideshow here.

Lord, where're the blooms, buds, leaves? By April back in the day we were listening to hifi speakers (remember them?) stuffed in the windows of Holder Hall.
Winter and early Spring has sucked. God it was 70 degrees all along the North east from Thanksgiving almost to Christmas. We paid for that in full and I'm praying the greenery and flowers will catch up...

One of the eeriest things about boarding school and college campi nowadays is the absense of sub woofer, power tweeter, balls to the wall thunder bucket Hi-fi stereo speakers vying for supremacy across each ivyed quad. iPod nation is missing out on how we used to share files - I mean vinyl. Here I am doing yardwork and cranking a righteous jam of Richard Thompson doing "Night Comes In", followed by some Taj Mahal, Live at the Fillmore, I think, and Jimi Hendrix's Electric Ladyland 'cause that's what I stacked on the attic turntable with the windows open and the neighbors be damned. Glorious stuff, 'til the resident trooper drops in, no doubt.

Now there is warm weather, but no leaves yet. Hmm, telescopes? Ha, ha, Byron.

Great Tom Lehrer reference, Greenman Tim.
Thanks for the great images, TH. Your skills with a digital camera are only exceeded by your skills with the keyboard. (Sorry to have written in the passive voice, as I know that's a pet peeve of yours.

A group here in my adopted hometown of Asheville, NC got together for a "Day in the Life of" project. 25 photographers spent the entire day (April 14) taking photos of our beautiful mountain town. They're going to put together 120 of the best shots for a library display and photo book.
