Bionic hydrangeas
I am not sure what kind of Miracle Gro our intrepid groundskeeping staff is putting on the hydrangeas around Efird and Taylor dorms, but these are the biggest, fullest, most lush plants I believe I have ever seen. They are in that light-blue/slightly purplish variety and are absolutely divine looking. And enormous.
I think the heat has kept the campus relatively quiet this week. I don’t see a ton of summer school students walking around and it is way too hot for most students to try and play frisbee or ball on the Quad. Most of the traffic I see from my window is sports camp kids.
When I was leaving work yesterday, I saw a father picking up his daughter from a camp (from the looks of the uniform, probably soccer). She could not have been more than 8 or 9 years old and she was telling her father quite earnestly about someone who no longer plays for Wake, but has graduated.
I have to say I was impressed to see a kid her age following our sports teams so closely. It is an excellent example of WFU parents raising their children right and “inDEACtrinating” them while they are young : )
