We parked by the statue on Wisteria and then walked up looking for my bricks. Of course, it was deserted, but it looked like a zombie town, like those pics you see online of abandoned buildings, eery. The fence around Harper didn’t help. I suppose they managed to mow now and then, but that was it. Flowerbeds full of weeds, dead flowers, dying azaleas, random trash, etc. Was same way by dog at intramural center. Will take a lot of work when they go back. I was just shocked, surprised, and depressed that after these 4 months our beautiful campus looks so awful. I guess i hadn’t thought about and assumed they could still social distance in the outside air and keep it looking nice. Almost made me want to cry.
