College Tours - Colorado Boulder and Oregon State

When I was a graduating senior - it never occurred to me to look outside of my state for colleges.
Not so with this generation - the world is their playing field and within each of the universities we looked at, are opportunities to study abroad.

Here is a snapshot of our whirlwind tour of University of Colorado Boulder and Oregon State University (my hubby's alma mater):

Sunset and mountains out our hotel window in Boulder CO

Can't beat a city bus from college campus to ski resort! Eldora mtn only 18 miles out of Boulder!

 Fabulous restaurants along Pearl Street in downtown Boulder. Loving the food and decor in this one: Wild Standard

 Tough to beat this outdoor eating area! Dining hall on CU campus.

 Early morning walk along Pearl Street (downtown Boulder) before the crowds

 

Farewell to the stunning Flat Irons! Photo from downtown Boulder bus station. (The boys hiked up to the dip between the 2 on the right)

Hello to Oregon State University!

Oooo aaahhhh! The engineering building using sustainable design

Can you find him?!

 Another gorgeous campus with a top notch mechanical engineering school and close to campus outdoor activities! Oh the choices!
