Goodnight, Raleigh!

They are located on the corner of Yarbrough and Brooks. This is also where Brooks Avenue begins. Once again, Google Maps has the street names wrong when embedding the map as a widget.

I’ve walked by these things a thousand times and always thought they’d be neat to photograph. As the post title implies, they are outside of Williams Hall. I have no idea as to their purpose. I know that they have been the target of taggers and have been repainted several times.

I was standing on a grate at the corner while taking this picture. When fumbling around to change memory cards, my fingers slipped and I lost a card in the drain. Luckily there weren’t any images in it that had not already been downloaded.

In lieu of a family of my own, enjoy a picture of my two girls and my sister’s rottweiler, Lexus.

Bagwell Avenue is one of my favorite residential streets in all of Raleigh. The oaks lining the street not only provide a lovely environment, but also serve to provide great sound insulation as well. You can see Hillsborough Street from the middle, yet the sounds of all of the hustle and bustle aren’t there.
I can’t put my finger on it, but there is something special about this street.

This is at the intersection of Oberlin Rd. and Cameron St.

NCSU week has come to a close, and with it comes a new beginning. All this week is Christmas week, where this blog will showcase some of the houses and businesses that have strung out the holiday lights for this time of year. Out of respect to home owners, I won’t be posting addresses or locations for the photos.

The house pictured above had a neat effect of snowflakes moving across the front of the house.
