Owl

This owl usually is sitting on one of the fences.  Today it added the required mask. 

Sharkey's

Still quiet or is that redundant?

Tulip

Sometimes the tulips get eaten by the deer.  I think this bush managed to protect this tulip.

On Arbor Day, one of the Virginia Tech trees, the Alwood Oak.

Draper Road tulips

Quiet spring 

Earth Day Efforts

Seems it is a round-about?

Flowers by the fallen tree

Sign of spring in the quiet town.

Anniversary

Anniversary of the tragedy.

Empty sidewalks

College Ave. empty and quiet as is the community.

Storm last night

The storm last night toppled a tree.  It did not hit the home, but it was close.  Most of it was removed by afternoon.

Bear tree doing fine

The bear tree is o.k.

Mural on Draper Road

The building has been a classic in the businesses it housed too.

Storm clouds

With some sun.

Drainage

Just that trees and stones have been used to make the drainage path a part of the landscaping design.

Construction is still going on

Many projects do continue.  This is the area where the University Club was located.

Chalk art on driveways

Creative artists use chalk at home.  Perhaps the top piece says I love Harding Avenue Elementary

Walking path

The walking paths are being closed too in this time but i was able to go to the start of this one.  It is the statue of one of the pioneers, Mary Draper Engles and the flowers are sculptures by Dorothy Gillespie.
