While in Williamsburg, we took advantage of gorgeous summer weather to tour the campus of William & Mary, my alma mater.
We stopped in at the Alumni House . . .
Checked out the Stadium . . .
Toured the Sadler Center . . .
Inside . . .
And out . . .
We stopped to admire its stacked stone walls . . .
Then crossed the street to The Daily Grind, a coffee house housed in Lodge 2 (former campus housing) . . .
From there, we hiked through the woods around Crim Dell . . .
Enjoying the meandering path and dappled shade . . .
Until we spied the Crim Dell Bridge through a break in the trees . . .
We walked further to get a closer look before crossing its curved planks . . .
On the far side, we stopped to read the dedication plaque . . .
“. . . that one may walk in beauty, discover the serenity of the quiet moment, and dispel the shadows.”
After dispelling the shadows, we trekked across campus to Lake Matoaka to check out the new amphitheater . . .
And its inviting stage . . .
At this point, we were hot, tired, and famished . . .
So we hoofed back across campus to the College Delly to split a 3-Way Cheese Sub & a basket of fries . . .
Washed down with a Ray Ray’s Extra Pale Ale from COTU (Center of the Universe) Brewing Company . . .
Aah . . . that’s better!
