Whittier Field

I made a quick crusade out to Whittier Field at Bowdoin College yesterday to get a glimpse as to how the new field will look this fall.  I must admit that I was saddened at what I saw, as the only things left standing were the original grandstand and the scoreboard - everything else had been removed.  Where the field once existed, crushed rock, that will serve as the base for the new turf, was being leveled.  The tailgating area is now a huge pile of dirt.  Just this morning, I happened upon a sketching of the new field, and my first thought was "watching a game will never be the same."
