You know what I'm going to do here? I'm going to make a mad dash to complete February here. It's way easier to get through the photo roll when you stop taking pictures!

Crossing over the Red Cedar River, just a little bit frozen over.


SAM_3486.jpg

Another look at the Red Cedar River, lightly iced.

Michigan State campus. Here's a bit of art outside one of the athletic facilities.


SAM_3489.jpg

The walk leading up to Spartan Stadium.


SAM_3490.jpg

And here's the stadium itself. Havne't been to a football game.


SAM_3491.jpg

More of the Red Cedar River, crossing over from the stadium towards the library.


SAM_3492.jpg

Duck!


SAM_3493.jpg

They ducked!

And there's the Michigan State University library. Looking forward to when I can just go there and hang out wandering around the stacks again.

Igloo that someone built in the middle of campus.

And now to Downtown East Lansing. At the far left is one of an estimated 46 ten-storey apartment buildings with chain stores on the base level that have been dropped on town in the past five years.


SAM_3500.jpg

The D S Brolin building, housing the Curious Book Shop. You can hardly tell how the upper floor used to be an unrelated store with its own entrance and sign.


SAM_3502.jpg

Ghost sign for the MSC Restaurant. And since you can just see the street sign for MAC avenue you've got all the old names for Michigan State University covered in one view.


SAM_3504.jpg

Better view of the ghost sign. The building this is on eventually became Woody's Oasis, the mediterranean restaurant, but they got chased out and the place is now a Lou and Harry's bar-and-grill.


SAM_3506.jpg

Pinball Pete's East Lansing, downstairs, like you'd hope for from a pinball venue.


SAM_3510.jpg

One of the girl scout cookie boxes [personal profile] bunnyhugger got this year had this anomaly: the flap's open outside the seal. how did this happen? ... No idea.
