Spring is Here!

by David Hooper on Mar 6, 2009 2:00 PM EST in Rocky Top Talking Points

First of all, I am a complete and utter idiot for not having brought my cheap little digital camera onto campus today. (The weather forecast says everything you need to know about my lack of foresight.) Even though we had lows below 20 earlier this week, some of the trees are already beginning to show signs of life, as the greenery and buds are rapidly waking up.

So, for those of you who may not be in Knoxville, here are a few photos from around campus last spring. For those of us who are here, we can anticipate many, many reasons to procrastinate and get absolutely nothing done. So get to daydreaming, people!

The only reason I might be here tonight is the Lady Vols' game!

I Love Spring!

Man there is nothing like it, especially if you work outside like i do in 20 degree weather every day. I have read somewhere (either here or volquest) that kiffin is having an open practice next friday. does anyone know if thats still going on or did something change?

As far as I know . .

It's scheduled.

The fire marshall hasn’t made his determination yet, though. There’s a question of whether the construction is safe to get around. I think it’s doubtful, to be honest. Hopefully they can make it up later if it doesn’t happen this time.
