Old Oakbridge

The Oakbridge Apartments are to be removed to make way for the EDGE, a new set of apartments.

Sunlight through trees

Early morning at Fincastle St.

Differently shaped building

When this building was just completed, I wondered about its interesting shape.  The business in it is a manicure salon.

Town is quiet

Seems that no one is walking on the Virginia Tech drillfield. 

Memorial Day decorations

Community organizations mark the graves with several kinds of flags.

Near Harding Elementary School

An outdoor picnic terrace near one of the elementary schools.

Equipment

Work on the promenade for College Ave. continues.  This might be the crosswalk.

Clouds

Weather today ranged from sunny to stormy. 

Dominate in skyline

The new art center seems to dominate the skyline.  But it was not so long ago that I remember when the Baptist church or Lane Hall seemed central from this point on the hillside above the cemetery. 

Home

The tree seemed to overpower this home.

Music at the picnic

Panjammers, a steel drum band, provided music at the parish picnic...indoors because of rain.

Bikes

Perhaps abandoned last night and ready for riding today.

Spring fascination

New growth is what spring is all about

Still spring flowers

Foggy morning

A view of the intersection of Pointe Dr. and Harding Ave.

Grape Arbor and Garden

Yes, this urban garden is on a hill.  Grapes always do well on hills, don't they?

Tree Removal

Seems it is interesting work to remove trees.

It was the Lyric

A person who knows about theatre in this community told a group of us that, once, this was a movie theatre.

Along West Roanoke St.

Flowers.

Organizations care about community

Civic organizations keep a lot of activities going in every community.  League of Women Voters of Montgomery County members learn about policies at the annual meeting.

Blossoms Fallen

Even as the blossoms fall, the spring beauty of the tree remains.

Golf course

Our golf game was rained out today.  Maybe tomorrow will be sunny weather.  I am a fair-weather golfer.

Flowers by post office

The center of town.

Construction work continues

Along College Ave.

Starting Clematis

Friends planted a Clematis in a space behind my home.  It is a flowering plant with the ability to train onto trellises. 

Time Capsule

The community time capsule is in the park.

Stage of art center

The new art center is nearing completion.  This view is from the balcony.  If I am lucky, I might see shows from these seats.  I hope.

Art on the ground

This is in the middle of the Armory Parking lot.

Fishing

There seem to be individuals fishing regularly at the Duck Pond.
