Dear Friends,

My Auburn adventure is now documented below. I shall miss my time in Auburn, and look forward to one day returning and seeing it when people will be present.

Auburn as a town is a winsome and enamoring place. I have only experienced it during a pandemic's solitude. It is a splendid setting for a weekend getaway, and if you do go, please tell them TulaneLSU sent you. Below are some of my unreleased photos of Auburn University, that I hope you will enjoy.












New construction in the biosciences section of campus.










Cold water plant.




McDonald's on-campus.




A security guard I met while walking around campus told me that Auburn has the best fisheries department in the nation. I was so intrigued that I visited the man-made ponds just north of campus. I hoped to wet a line, but there were signs reading, "No Fishing."


The performing arts center.


The new DO school on campus.


While I do not like sidewalks that are fully bricked, Auburn's sidewalks have enough concrete that walking for me was safe. I strongly suggest that you do not walk on bricks, as it may cost you your volleyball career. The area to the left is a lovely lawn that would make for a perfect romantic picnic location. If one would prefer more privacy, the arboretum would be another great, yet private, picnic spot.




The President's house



Faith, Hope, and Love,
TulaneLSU

See if you can find a spot where you can throw a stone without hitting a trailer.

Eat at Acre (if they're opening back up this week). Very good food.

Make a Top 10 list of pizzas to try in Auburn.

Visit Chewacla state park.

Go to the Jule Collins Smith art museum.

If you golf, go play the RTJ trail course there (technically in Opelika).

I like Hamiltons on Magnolia. But I don't know if they're open.

Friend,

One option you should explore is to festively roll trees in the manner of the locals. A grand time is to be had as you toss the toilet paper through the boughs of an oak. I'm told it is an unforgettable experience, yet I have never had the pleasure.

Best Regards,

I was extremely disappointed when I tried it a couple years back. Had heard Auburn fans talk about it my entire life, and it was...just mediocre.

What should you do? Leave would probably be the best choice.

Thank you, friend.

I was serious about the art museum, btw. It's a special place for a small college town.

If a person is excited enough about a few days in Auburn By God Alabama then a few days in the capitol of the empire state of the south would be orgasmic for them...just in lemonade variety alone Auburn ain't got anything on Atlanta...seriously...Lemonade seems to be something of an attraction in Auburn.....the decadence in Auburn is overhwleming, imagine, lemonade....why the very idea...
