[56/365] Sarah P. Duke Garden, Duke University, Durham, North Carolina, USA

The Sarah P. Duke Garden on the Duke University Campus is huge! This is one of the bridges we crossed as we ventured through the different parts of the garden. It was a beautiful fall day!

Odd, I felt like a bit of a traitor because I was actually enjoying the campus. All I have to say for that is college basketball. You know what school I love more though. :)

Red Bow, Fayetteville Street, Downtown, Raleigh, North Carolina, USA

These wreaths adorned with large bright red bows were in the process of being put onto the light posts in downtown Raleigh, the capital of North Carolina. From the capital building, we walked along the wide Fayetteville Street, one of the main streets downtown. Its November and that means the holiday and winter season is just around the corner!

Autumn Leaves, Tree-Lined Walkways, Duke University, Durham, North Carolina, USA

At over 8,000 acres, strolling through Duke University was an adventure. Surprisingly warm weather greeted us. Gothic buildings define the campus and just stepping a short way from the dorms were tree-lined walkways like this one. Leaves were scattered on the concrete and the trees were a multitude of vibrant colors. I know about Duke most because of my familiarity with college basketball, so I had no idea of how the campus would look. I must say, the architecture throughout campus was beautiful and the areas surrounding campus were expansive woods filled with trees of all colors.
