Fall Color in Princeton

Where we live in California everybody that I know waxes poetic about the beautiful Fall colors on the East Coast. We all want to see them in that great someday. I want to tell you that it is indeed, everything that we have heard it is, and more.








These photographs {the first seven} were taken in and around our son and daughter-in-law's yard and apartment parking lot.

Aren't they amazing?

Princeton University



This picture is a classroom building at Princeton Seminary. I don't have time to write tonight after encountering an hour of hotel internet issues, so I'll just show you today's sights. The rest of the photos were taken across the street, at Princeton University. ~Much Love!

Princeton


. . . so you step out of the lecture hall, and pass through this doorway to leave the building . . . This must be one of those moments when you realize that we're not in Oakdale anymore, Toto.



That boy knows the way to his bibliophile Mom's heart. Take her deep into the aisles of the world's second largest theological library. {Second to the Vatican. Pretty good company, don't you think?}
This is such an amazingly beautiful town.

The grounds surrounding this historical home/museum, The Thomas Clark House were the site of an important Revolutionary War Battle. The Battle of Princeton. This house served as a field hospital, to both sides. We are near to the very place that George Washington crossed the Delaware . . . He led his men in the battle on these grounds.

The edge of the battle ground.


Back at the Seminary . . . a window in the chapel . . .


. . . and one in a lecture hall. I hope you're enjoying our trip. We certainly are! I'll be in touch!
