Rainy day in Blacksburg, 1989 ☔️ 📷: Bugle
A crowded college campus walkway on a rainy day in the late 1980s or early 1990s. Many students are walking with umbrellas of various colors, wearing casual clothing like jeans, sweatshirts, and backpacks. The fashion includes high-waisted pants, oversized sweaters, and layered looks. The ground is wet, and green lawns surround the paved paths. In the background, vintage cars are parked along the street, adding to the retro atmosphere.
