OTish - Mikoyan Goes Wandering Around Ann Arbor Again...

I haven't posted any pictures of campus lately because I haven't been wandering around Ann Arbor much lately.  Anyways, took a little stroll around main campus and downtown Ann Arbor tonight.  Hope you guys enjoy.

We need to photoshop the couple that kissed in the middle of the riot into the bighouse-that would be classic.

Looking at those photos just took me back a long ways.  I forgot how great that city is.  Thanks for posting that!

Ann Arbor is a gorgeous city.  Thanks for sharing those pictures.

As tired of the city as I am getting, after having lived here 7 years, I will sure miss it when I actually leave.

Spent 6 years and couldn't wait to get out at the end of it.  A year later, I live in downtown Lansing and daydream about being back there full-time.

I lived in Ann Arbor for 20 years, and have now lived away from the state of Michigan for 5 yrs. Seemed like a good decision at the time but there honestly isn't a day that passes that I don't think about how bad I want to move back.

I can't wait to get there in a month and a half. Looking forward to running in the Arb.

It's all John Navarre's fault.

I am 90% the first flower is a pink dahlia, the second (like you wrote) is a daisy and the third is a pansy.

I almost hate that I know that, but I worked at a green house for three years in high school.

Wonderful pictures, by the way. Thanks for the post. I hope you post more often.

I'm pretty regular on updating my blog but I don't do Ann Arbor often enough.

 

Thank you for the flower information though.

with Alice In Wonderland under my arm and my big ten-gallon Indian hat on and spent the afternoon. Among other things I remember the Huron River sounding like a full orchestra, playing around me for hours, being able to hear it from the other end of the Arb. I ran into Arwulf and told him I was tripping for the first time; he told me he was tripping for the 100th and wandered off. I also remember watching two willows turn into women and make love with one another. . . and oh, the colors!

On Friday nights when I was at Huron we would all meet in the parking lot at the bottom of the Arb and get high, drink, and kiss our girlfriends. Our Friday afternoon wine drinkers' club use to also wander over there sometimes, blow off afternoon classes. (I was lucky to get offered a scholarship to UM, under the circumstances! My senior year was amazing, but not too scholastically oriented.) Those were good times.

Hey nice pictures, love that you included Pinball Pete's.

You should take some pictures of that graffiti mural that's somewhere by the State theater (I think).

So much to do and see in Ann Arbor I love it.

Truly beautiful shots. I miss the city. Nothing else is like it.
