A few blocks away from campus are a popular park and lake which is a common place for students to hang out at during the day. Surrounding the lake are these sculptures that I found to be pretty cool and shockingly expensive.
Actually I'm kind of surprised that some punk kids haven't come and destroyed them already. Seems that anything that looks nice and has value is sooner or later destroyed by kids looking to a "have" fun-time.
The next one is my favorite. I’m not sure if I like the shine from the metal or that I’m just a huge dog lover, but I wish I had this one in my yard at home
There are also some water fountains, but since winter is coming they are currently shut off.
I come to this park quite often during the year. In the spring and summer you can rent paddle boards to paddle around the lake in, and during the winter it is turned into a huge Ice skating rink. They also have outdoor concerts and carnivals here that gather a huge crowd.
As you can see in the photos, today was a perfect day without a cloud in the sky. The only thing was that it's kind of a chilly outside, and definetly needed a jacket.
Photos were taken using the Sony Alpha digital camera.
