who let the dogs out?
Today I had a meeting at Lafayette at 9. I decided to wear my sneakers (too cold for sockless Birks!) and walk the Art Trail after the meeting. I already had a parking place.
I left campus and walk along the Bushkill Creek until I arrived at Bushkill Drive. I turned left and picked up the trail. It was a beautiful day. Cool when standing still. Perfect when moving.
The first new "art" I came upon is above. I saw the "sawhorse" first and thought there was an issue. Then I saw the other items. I'm not sure what any of them are, and the execution is not fantastic. Actually, they look like they'll crumble in the next wind storm.
The second one isn't really new. I think this was here when I was on a Volkssport walk. I just didn't look at it carefully. It's the utility box for the trail. If you look carefully it's painted, then doodled! Can doodling really be fine art?
When I reached the end of the path I turned around and came back.
What I noticed today, more than any other time on the trail is the sheer number of dogs. And none liked each other. Park of it might be that there is a dog park on the trail. But if you don't get along with other caine's you can't use it. So much barking!
When I returned to campus I took the road to Rt 611. There was a camper I wanted to take a picture of, and a ghost sign.
Then I headed to Jersey for gas. It's 15¢ cheaper this week. Not much, but at least it wasn't $2.89.

Bathrooms: none used
Wildlife: 3 mallards, 1 male
