Weekend Recap -- College Visits and Family Reunions

[kybearfuzz]

I finally realized that in all my years at Berea College, I had never taken campus pictures other than just candids with me and my friends. I finally did get some photos shot last Friday.

Saturday was the family reunion of sorts. It was my grandfather's sister's family on my dad's side. Unfortunately, my sister and brother couldn't make it, so it was just me, Mom, and my stepdad and a slew of relatives I really don't know that well. It was a nice time, but I was bored. The food was good though. Too good. I also have some really burly second or third cousins or cousins-in-law. I'm surprised as facial hair is generally not prevalent in my family, except for the current generation.

The rest of the weekend was pretty tame. I went to Goody's, a regional clothing store, and was shocked at the colors in the men's department. When did pastel colors come back? I felt like I was walking through a Miami Vice garage sale. UGLY! Did we learn nothing from the mistakes of the 1980's? I await the return of the mullet....

I came home early and went bowling with one of my college friends and his hubby. That was a lot of fun, it was good to reminisce with him :)

And small! You can walk from one end to the other in about 20 minutes really. :)

I do know why you enjoy seeing the school year start, lots of cute cubbies walking about :)

for some reason, it's not displaying on my screen.

Methinks Mark's much prettier than the Berea campus, though.

Talk about your trip down memory lane! I worked for 3 years as one of the main students in the Special Collections department. Thanks for the pics :)

It seems to change so much and yet not at all. Glad you enjoyed it :)

Very nice photos. You've reminded me that I've never taken photos of my old campus here in Chicago, something I need to do one of these days.

Your campus looked very very pretty. And you look pretty nice too. ;-)

I feel pretty.. oh, so pretty....

[mikiedoggie.livejournal.com]

That icon is... disturbing.

[kybearfuzz.livejournal.com]

LOL.. coming from you, that's quite a compliment :D

Did the mullet ever actually GO away in KY? ;)

Come on, Mark, tell the truth ... you left Goody's with white trousers and are now sporting them with sockless loafers. You hipster, you. ;)

[kybearfuzz.livejournal.com]

LOL... no, the mullet seems to still hang about in KY.

Actually, I couldn't get over how ugly the clothes in Goody's were, which was sad as it's one of my favorite stores. Disturbing!

Thanks for the memories! Graduated from Berea in 2002. LOL I worked at Boone Tavern my freshman & sophomore years (and implemented the plan to get the servers their tips)and lived in Dana and Danforth Halls. I was also an Admissions tour guide my final two years. You got some great photos! :-)

[kybearfuzz.livejournal.com]

Ah, Berea is a grand place, huh? :)

[sweetjimmyto.livejournal.com]

Nice campus and great photos, too ... thank you for sharing.

FYI ... the mullet will never go away.

[kybearfuzz.livejournal.com]

I shudder at that.. ick ick ick... :)

I had forgotten that you attended Berea. Yes, it is a beautiful college. I remember visiting and beautiful walks around the campus, great meals at Boone Tavern, and fun visiting some of the artists in the town. Great pics.

[kybearfuzz.livejournal.com]

Thanks :)

I admit that eating at Boone Tavern was more fun than working there.
