Random Saturday Symmetry with a little Geometry*



A distant view of Downtown Raleigh from Boylan Street Bridge
  Wye Hill, a Kitchen/cafe and brewery, sits on the left side of the above Bridge overlooking the train tracks.
Wye is a railroad term:  a triangle of railroad track used for turning locomotive or trains
Ironically it is a plumbing term for a short pipe with a branch joining it at an acute angle*.

Buildings are growing out of the ground overnight...
too quickly in our opinion.

  1. this looks nothing like I pictured Raleigh in my minds eye... I guess all the big cities are growing towers taller and taller and filling up with people and cars. Wye is a new word for me, never heard it before. I thought it was Y for the way the tracks look

  2. I had to google Wye Hill Kitchen and Brewery and I think it looks like some great food could be had there! 15 bucks for a burger but I bet it's good.

  8. Raleigh looks about the same size as Rochester here in WNY. There are lots and lots of good places to eat there too.

  9. I worry about the speed buildings are going up these days. Looks like an interesting city. Maybe some day I will get to visit.

  10. The café would be HER choice. SHE's not a fan of all the buildings. Makes all the cities just look the same. Hope they have reserved historical places.

  13. Raleigh is an awesome place. I never got there enough when I was in F'ville. Sometimes I think I should have moved there instead of coming back to Tallahassee.

  14. Time marches on and it moves faster ALL THE TIME. Mom isn't happy about that either!

  15. Buildings go up in so many cities at such a rate that there is not much of the old left. It is a shame but I suppose that is progress.
