The University and the square have a special feel this time of year. There's the usual bustle of activity, but it's a sultry, slow sort of busyness, slow enough for the student, resident, or tourist to stop and smell the flowers, look at the postcards, or listen to the street musician play 'Summertime.'

Delightful details are everywhere for the sharp-eyed, from the ornate door at Robinson Hall (top left and middle) to the portion of a sculpture that resides in Robinson Hall (bottom left).

Science Center fountain
The fountains at the Science Center present a cool haven for children who choose to splash their way through summer's heat.
