The weather provided a bit of drama last month, including this sudden Friday snowstorm. Views are from the top floor of the library looking over campus.
Heavy rains hit the New River Valley which flooded the New River. Water was released from the dam upstream at Claytor Lake and RU didn't warn students in time to move their cars from the riverside parking lot. You can see the flooded river in the photo below and the submerged cars in the photo below that. These photos were also taken from the fifth floor of McConnell Library.

Meanwhile, while the weather raged, I took a few interior shots.

| Repaired section of my backyard fence. A wind-damaged branch fell and took out several boards. These are the bright and shiny replacement boards. "Good fences make good neighbors" |
