These photos are from our visit to Furman University back on December 17, 2011. Mr. McB and I had planned to go to the movies but we thought better of when we realized what a mild, sunny Saturday we’d been blessed with.
Furman is known for having a gorgeous campus, see number 12 on this list. In addition to the beautiful buildings, the campus also features many beautiful natural areas. They even produced a field guide to the trees and animals that you’ll find at Furman. Here are a few images from our little photo walk.
Lakeside housing
This is the original building that housed Furman’s two classrooms. It was moved from its original location and can now be found near the lake.
Sky mirrored in the lake
Furman’s Florentine belltower and bare trees
This photo was not touched up in anyway. The sky was just a stunning shade of blue.
These trees flank the pathway to the bell tower. They are so smooth, I could have rubbed them all day. These are the kinds of trees that are heaven to a tactile person like me.
The clouds showed up in this photo of the pond in the Japanese gardens.
The last remnants of fall were trapped in the pond.
Even dead grass can make an interesting contrast.
Cattails that look like big fat corn dogs – albeit moldy, furry corndogs.
Sugar, come sit a spell.
