No swimming? Really?
These are some awesome warning signs by the fountain in West Side Park. A little unnecessary, since the fountain is not really that large or deep, but hey. These were gone for a while, because they are a popular theft item.
First two pics are recent. These are brand new—replaced just this year—and still intact. Last one is from 2005, the last of the old ones (stolen shortly after this pic).
Also, I feel like this a lot: drowning in two inches of water. Frowning emo-ticon goes here.
Orpheum
This used to be a downtown movie theater (back when that was a common occurrence). Now it’s the Children’s Science Museum, which is a pretty decent fate for a former downtown movie theater.
This is the back of the building, seen from odd angles.
Meadowbrook Park
I only got about 30 minutes’ worth of “golden hour” shots, because it took like half the day (and 50 ads) to get here by bus.
Previously…
Arty partying, a sneal peek from a tall building, a camera whisperer who can’t fix his own lens, and more!*
*Not much more, though.
One does not simply walk into the South Quad!
Here’s that new bell tower they stuck on the U of I South Quad, along with some other crap that was nearby.
And here’s a pic from last year that I wish I had taken.
More fun with MoogleGaps
So I was astral projecting playing around with satellite views of CU and pretending to hover over my little town below, when I remembered this pic I took a couple years ago:
Luckily for any alien business investors, you can’t see the boarded up windows from space, amirite?
They can see the donuts, though!
