Once a Buckeye, Always a Buckeye

Hazy, hot and humid. Buckeye heaven.Arrived at 10:30 a.m.

First things first, we found our way to the old math building and visited Ray's former office. See the pic of us with math gibberish as background. It is now the stat dept. with math moved to a new tower adjoining.
Hope you checked out the new Student Union building in the youtube in video!! The whole thing was a surprise put together by the dancers and OSU president to promote the brand new union which opened last month.It was lovely inside, kind of like a convention center, and we rested and checked our email in complete comfort. I just don't know where commuter students are going to lay down and take a nap! And yes, Alice, Ray is on his IPad.

And that script OHIO STATE done in red tiles....that's in the ladies room! No expense spared!

Of course we went to Jones Tower and were sorry to see it was closed for construction.

Next we had lunch at Mirror Lake and went by the library.
That's mini me in front of the library.

High Street is a shadow of its former self. No "Larrys" but many Sushi and Thai eateries. McDonalds and Wendy's persist. Long'sBook store is gone. Found my old apartment on Woodruff.I can't believe it's still standing!



All in all it was a day of great memories!
outdoor theater and quad
We departed Columbus and drove four hours to Louisville, KY. Tomorrow another 400 miles to Memphis, where we'll spend the entire weekend. Goodbye, Columbus. Hello, Elvis!
