Chapel Hill

Today Dav was at work so I did the tourist thing at Chapel Hill. My, how friendly people are! I spent most of my time at the university's main library. Found a statue scratching his foot, pics of famous dead white men I did not know, their old dinner tables, historic pics (I found most interesting) and a gorgeous library with books too important-looking to touch (most were locked in a cage). I rather liked the town. And I loved the trees.

Hey Mie,
Awesome pictures -- i'm thoroughly impressed :) (heh-I'm partial to the guy scratching his foot) Hope you're having loads of fun!

The statue is...um, I forgot the artists, but it's a famous thing. A boy extracting a thorn from the sole of his foot. This man is the funder of Raleigh - if only my latin sucked half as much... ;)The place looks dusted but impressive!

Hi,
Yeah, I figured the status must be of something more dignified than scratching his foot...but I like the concept. The Foot Scratcher.

Yeah, the whole campus is beautiful. But almost too beautiful. I like it when a campus is messy with student energy and projects.
