Cherry Blossoms

 

I understand that we're experiencing an early bloom this year. Afternoon temps had risen into the low 70s briefly last week, which I suppose is the reason. But we're back into the mid to upper 50s this week. 

Campus Shop

 

It may not seem like much to outsiders, but this is a big deal here locally. The Campus Shop has moved!

After nearly 30 years on Prince George Street, the Campus Shop has now relocated to Duke of Gloucester St. (aka D.O.G. Street). to the building formerly occupied by the William & Mary Bookstore operated by Barnes & Noble.

I'll have to grab my camera and head over to the new location for some shots. Otherwise, a whole generation of W&M grads might be clueless. :-)

Shoulder Month

 

Just the slightest hint that spring is around the corner. March is one of those "shoulder months" here on the Middle Peninsula, when afternoon temperatures can range anywhere from the upper 60s and low 70s to the upper 40s and low 50s. Today, for instance, we're expecting a high of 55. Not quite as pleasant as last Wednesday when I snapped this picture and when the afternoon high was nearly 76. 

Welcome to spring!
