December 12

Accurate

The Sun Dial in front of Heppner Hall at San Diego State University is accurate as can be gleaned from the image and exif data.

Just a quick one today when I was returning materials to the Library today.
A bit of turmoil here as a hot water pipe break and the resulting damage is being repaired at our house.
This has resulted in one bathroom being gutted and the removal or partial removal of other flooring in the house.
I always look at the bright side of such occurrences. I've met some very nice people who are doing the work here and I've learned more about asbestos, construction, plumbing, etc.

The way to turn a problem into something with some good to it. A time device that is also a work of art. A very beautiful image with lovely color, light and shadow. It does appear that the Sun Dial is accurate. A fine point of view. V
