Historic Gate - 14 FEB 2008

There was a cold streak that dipped into NC last night leaving light snow as far south as Durham. Although we didn’t see any snow, my car doors were frozen shut this morning and made a tremendous noise when I pulled them open. Tinky Winky had to put on a sweater in order to play outside. All week I’ve been teaching in the Anderson building located on the Dorothea Dix (mental) Hospital Campus.

There are more than 120 separate buildings, many of which were constructed during 1910-1930, with this great iron gate at the entrance.
