This week was Spring Break, so I decided to go on a Photo Safari!

You see, whenever you enter my college, you crest a little hill, and behind the campus (nestled in a little hollow) you can see a mountainish thing. I decided to climb said mountainish thing and take pictures as I went.

First, we went past the pond and up the paved drive that went a little ways up the mountainish thing.


A little ways up, the road stopped and I had to go offroad. I took the opportunity to turn around and snap a shot of the guys' dorm, from behind and above.


Going up the slope, I came upon a curious outcropping of rock! Well, I couldn't let this pass undocumented.


After ascending a little further, I found a great view of the pond from above.


Approaching the summit, the ground became steep.


I'd guess that was at least a 45-degree incline, wouldn't you? Maybe more.

Anyway, once I reached the top, I took a shot of the county hospital off in the distance, where my mom works.


Finally, I set the camera on a stump and set the timer to take a picture of me, triumphant and victorious, atop the crest.


Hooray for Spring Break!

I really enjoyed the tour! (And the picture of the handsome, victorious fellow at the end!)

LOL! You're hilarious, Mark! :-)

That's pretty cool, though--I've wondered about that hill.

p.s. It bothers me that they ask for "word verifiation" when the jumble of letters is NEVER a word.

Just saw your new "About Me" photo--I love it! It's perfect. Amusing, yet oddly like you.
