Staff Blogger: Erin White, Visual Communications Intern
I took a stroll down Sycamore Ave during my lunch break on a sunny Lakeside afternoon. Although I walk this road every day to work, I always seem to notice something new each time. Leaving the intern house, I hear birds calling to one another and spot a squirrel running across the street. To my right, sits the grooviest van I’ve ever seen. The van’s vibrant cherry red and white paint glistens in the sun. Complete with Woodstock, peace signs and other retro decals, it looks like it was driven straight out of the 60s. I continue forward and pass a friendly woman walking her dog, she waves and smiles as we pass each other. Farther down the road, I can always count on the house at 453 Sycamore Ave. to have new chalk art in their driveway, today was colorful hearts, stars and other doodles.
