That Time of Year

category icon Posted in Campus Life, Photos

What time of year? Fall! I absolutely love fall. I love the cooler temperatures, the colors, the crunchy leaves. Even though the rainy days are perfect for napping and watching movies, I still have to drag myself to class (and haul a dripping umbrella around). But other than that, I love fall! Campus is so pretty in the fall. Unfortunately, the pretty time of fall is very short, but I made sure to go out and take a few pictures while the colors were still vivid.

The crunchy leaves on the sidewalks turn you into a little kid again 🙂 I haven’t gotten too many weird looks 🙂

Looking out over the river on the bridge just past my dorm.

The trees that line the walkway on my way to University Band were very vivid. That’s what I call Hawkeye gold!

When I was out taking pictures I met one of my friends who was just coming back from a run. She usually finds some of the trails no one else does (she’s only gotten lost once so far) and when she saw I was taking pictures, she was able to direct me to a patch of sunflowers. I was very excited about the idea and after getting to the sunflower patch, I was not disappointed.

The different color variations fit so well into the fall color scheme.

I love the fading colors. It just looks so fall-ish!

My picture-taking endeavor was a success and acted as a much needed break from studying. I also enjoyed getting to see some parts of campus that are much quieter and more relaxed then the downtown area. Goes to show what you can find when you explore a little bit 🙂

Talk to you guys later, maybe after my Chemistry exam tomorrow! Eek!
