I rode out to Western Carolina University to help move a friend out of his dorm room early due to cover-19 cutting the in-school semester short. It never feels weird being back on WCU’s campus. I loved that school. The location was incredible. Walking to class, mountain view. Driving to Walmart, mountain view. Hiking trails on campus, mountain view. It was always so calming and made me happy. Anyway, I wandered around and tried to capture interesting photos that helped tell the story of moving out. These were 3 of my favorites.
