Arts/Cultural Blog Post #3: The Arboretum at Penn State

Due: Friday, 9/28 at 9pm
500-700 words


For your third blog post, please spend time reflecting on your experience wandering around the H.O. Botanical Gardens at the Penn State Arboretum.


We will likely come back to this experience later in the term when we've got arguments of definition and evaluation more firmly under our belt, but for now, I just want you to write freely about what you thought.

Was this your first trip to the Arboretum? Are you a nature-lover? Why or why not? Can you imagine coming here on your own? Bringing friends? What did you see? How did you feel? Did it remind you of something else in your life? Feel free to tell us about it. Please describe your experience in vivid, persuasive language and include pictures for visual interest if possible.
