U. of Puget Sound, Tacoma

fountain pen and watercolor in beige toned Nova sketchbook

Urban sketchers tend to be very adaptable folks. When I arrived in the wind and cold rain last Saturday the Tacoma UsKers were all lined up warm and cozy at the windows in the student union building where there was a decent view of the buildings and landscaping.

Coeds were going about their business of visiting, eating and studying their smart phones. The other kind of study was probably going on in the library? A pod of girls were nesting in a group of sofas by the window where they’d piled up delicious plates of hot food and coffee, warm clothes and other items of domestic coziness to facilitate punctuated chatter about people who were not present. We couldn’t help trying to remember what we sounded like back then a hundred years ago or so in college.
