Winter at W&L

by John Calvin | February 20th, 2009

It has been a sur­pris­ingly snow­less win­ter in Lexington, although we haven’t lacked for cold–we’ve had sus­tained day­time tem­per­a­tures in the sin­gle dig­its, which for this Southerner is rather colder than I’m used to. We saw snow in the air ear­lier than I’ve ever seen it–October 19th–but haven’t had an appre­cia­ble snow­fall until now. February 2nd we had an unex­pected three inches of beau­ti­ful fluffy snow dropped on us, although since the 3rd was well above freez­ing, we nei­ther had snow for long nor iced roads, so no snow day. But the cam­pus was beau­ti­ful, and I was able to shoot a good album of pic­tures. The best are below.

W&L in the Snow

We expe­ri­enced a sud­den snow­fall February 2nd, which just as quickly melted off…at least so far as it looked pretty. But I was able to get some good pho­tographs before that happened…
