Day 304


304/365, originally uploaded by Aaron LaRue.

I had a kind of surreal experience today. I was walking to work to drop something off and I heard this beautiful, airy music. It wasn't loud but it carried throughout all of Storke Plaza. I went to investigate and found this guy, just chillin' on a bench. 




He had his hat on, which shadowed his face, and he was just playing away. I wanted to know what it was that he was playing and what his story was, but I didn't want to intrude because I didn't want that heavenly music to stop, so I just admired from afar and snapped this picture. 


The weirdest part was that the music seemed to entrance a couple of ducks. There normally aren't ducks in this part of campus, if they are even around at all they usually hang out by the lagoon. But these ducks must have been lured to the music like I was. They set up shop on the edge of the koi pond and just stood there, motionless, listening to the music. They barely even noticed me behind them, I was close enough to reach out and touch them.
