signs of snow

i went for a walk downtown today just to be outside and get some fresh air [something i haven't had in a few days!]  and guess what?!? the snowflake lamp post lights are out downtown! I used to get so excited for them every year in undergrad.

and here at penn state, our snowflakes are blue & white...how perfect.

new path

things with school have been way too busy lately...so this morning i made sure that i blocked out time to go on a nice long walk.  i usually walk on campus, but with all of the football traffic today, i didn't want to deal with the chaos.

so i found a new path around the golf course where i live.  it was perfect...quiet, peaceful, and completely surrounded by nature.  now, combine that with the cool, foggy morning air and i was in heaven :)  it was just the kind of break i needed before i jump back into the piles of work waiting for me this weekend [2 weeks until fall break...it cannot come soon enough!].
