Day 366

Mystery plant day! I adopted a plant from the biology department, and don't actually know what it is. The tag attached to it said, "Eucalyptus scented plant (Mint family)." According to google, however, eucalyptus scented plants aren't actually a thing, unless it's a Eucalyptus tree, which this isn't. I'd believe that it's in the mint family, though- it smells really good! The leaves are fairly thick and fuzzy, but it doesn't look quite like any of the mint varieties I was able to find pictures of. If anybody has any ideas, I'd love to know! Taken 4.15.14.

Day 365

Spring is here! Taken 4.8.14.

Day 364

I woke up to this this morning. What a sunrise! Taken 4.9.2014.

Day 363

Or a kestrel? Taken 3.18.14.

Day 362

Osprey, anyone? Now that I've made it through hell-term, maybe I'll actually have time for photography! Taken 3.18.14.

Day 361

The aftermath. It was above freezing for the first part of the snow, so the result was that we got between 1 and 2 inches of solid ice on all the paths and roads. The plows couldn't scrape that off, so there was a layer of hard-packed snow on top of that, with all the looser stuff pushed to the side. Also, the trees got completely plastered with snow from the wind, which melted but was covered before it dripped, so they had thick layers of ice and snow as well. There were quite a lot of limbs down the next morning, including (impressively) one off a big tree; the break was in the main branch, which must have had a 7 or 8 inch diameter. Taken 2.21.14

This was with my new smart phone, hence the interesting dimensions.

Day 360

Chapel? What chapel? Where? This was taken towards the beginning of a rather fantastic blizzard. Taken 2.20.14.
