A Dark olive green deepness in the waterway with the banks and walls stained dark brown and almost black lines from the years of the constain waters rise and fall tells the history of it. Th occasional fish breaking the mirrored sheen of the surface feeding on insects lets you know that it is full of life.
Two boats tied to a dock have the bouncing off the hulls. They both are no longer the bright white they once were. faded weather covers that I am sure at one time was a deep blue cover the sun damaged instruments.
Another fish jump sends ripple from the center of the water way slowly and in ever increasing size and height to the old concrete cinderblock walls that are intermittent through out the stretch of water. Over grown tree hang over the banks and edges ever so lightly touch and carpet the waters surface.
The sunlight bounces off of collie art students brightly colored shirts and paper as they sit in the unnaturally florescent green grass atop of the concreted banks.
The sound of a Squirrel jumping throughout the trees with another in some sort of altercation reminds you that although students trample up and down these banks nature still has a decent hold of the area.
But the constant tone of heavy equipment in the distance reminds you of this areas future demise.
