An evening in Auburn

I took some photos as I walked around town this evening.

To most Auburn alumni and many residents of Alabama and the Southeast, this is the Most August Sublime Basilica Temple of the Holiest of All Beatific Sinai-Zion-Olympus-Valhalla-Rome-Mecca of the Empyrean Transcendent Deity of All Idolatry. To everyone else it's called Jordan-Hare Stadium.

Petrie Hall and Knockout roses

Cater Hall. My mom's office before she retired was in the top left window.

Ross Hall and big crape myrtles. Chemical Engineering is here, I believe.

Shelby Center. Headquarters of the College of Engineering and named after the Alabama Senator. Most of my friends in Auburn have offices in this area.

Shelby again.

Little old building next to Langdon Annex.

Toomer's Corner in downtown Auburn. 

Restaurants and apartments in downtown Auburn.

St. Dunstan's Episcopal Church

Auburn United Methodist Church. One of the oldest surviving buildings in Auburn. I was baptized at this church.

More restaurants along Magnolia Avenue. Hamilton's had brief local fame when Mel Gibson ate here while in Auburn to visit General Hal Moore.

Now used by Auburn United Methodist Church, this was the old St. Michael the Archangel Catholic Church, where I was confirmed and received into full communion. No one seems to miss the old cupcake church much.
