Perched atop a hill, in a house that overlooks the sprawling beauty of vineyards, lives Kenny, a majestic #canecorso whose days are painted with the hues of green vines and the golden touch of the sun. 🍇🏡 Kenny’s realm is one of serene beauty, where the whisper of the wind through the grapevines tells tales of nature’s bounty. Each morning, as the first light of dawn breaks the horizon, Kenny takes his place at the edge of the hill, his gaze sweeping over the vine-covered landscape. It’s a moment of peace, a daily ritual where he soaks in the tranquility of his surroundings, the guardian of his verdant kingdom. The vineyards, with their rhythmic patterns of growth, are not just a feast for the eyes but a source of endless fascination for Kenny. He watches over them through the seasons, from the budding of the first leaves to the harvest’s rich bounty, a silent witness to the cycle of nature. This connection to the land and its rhythms is a reminder of the simple joys of life, seen through the eyes of a dog who finds contentment in the beauty of his view. Kenny’s life atop the hill, amidst the vineyards, is a testament to the bond between nature and those who dwell within it, a daily celebration of life’s natural wonders. So here’s to Kenny, the Cane Corso who lives in the house on the top of the hill, whose days are a tribute to the beauty of the vineyards and the simple pleasures they bring. #VineyardViews #HilltopLife #dog #dogs #dogslife #dogsofinstagram #doglover #dogoftheday #instadog #dogportrait #VanDog #VincentVanDog #VanDogArt #VincentVanDogArt #petart #dogart #dogportraits #dogportraitsofinstagram #doginspired #interiordesignart #doglovergifts #canecorsoofinstagram #canecorsoitaliano
Cornell is mentioned in Jonathan Eig’s 2023 bestseller “King: A Life,” but it’s not a reference to Martin Luther King Jr.’s campus visit in 1962. At age 15 King gave a speech incorporating passages from “The Philosophy of the Race Problem (From a Negro’s Standpoint)” by Henry F. Coleman, Cornell Class of 1910. #CornellCollege #HilltopLife
God creates beauty that takes my breath away. What a gift it was to see this today. #hilltoplife #yakima #sunrise

Senior English major Ken Roden had never left his hometown in Oklahoma until coming to Cornell. Not only was it a big step, but it was a colorful one too, he writes in his essay about his journey to campus. "We were all just as green as the grass that greeted us when we stepped foot onto Cornell’s campus, and I hope we continue to have those green experiences for more colorful lives that await us." #CornellCollege #HilltopLife

Senior Kachana Myrville's work-study job is a career assistant student manager. They say it has given them skills—and a community. "Every day is different but allows me to grow professionally and personally. Whether it’s our trainings, learning better customer service and management skills, or just talking about my class and my day, I always feel more focused and sound after leaving my job here. The community I sought during COVID times is with me at the Berry Career Institute." #CornellCollege #HilltopLife

Cornell work-study students help make the college run, and we couldn’t do it without them. In the first of 7 student worker features, Donivan Jones '24 writes about life as the social media team manager. "Since I got my job, my already high amount of screen time (don’t judge me; I am a young adult) on Instagram has skyrocketed because now I use it for work. My job has helped me make friends, attract new students, and give other students unique opportunities—and I love that. Working for social media has made me an extrovert." #CornellCollege #HilltopLife

Started our day this way on Friday, after a windy storm the night before. We are sooooo blessed with good neighbors, one of whom happened to be out using his little chainsaw and came to help out. Cleared off, and we were ready to go. That's life on a hill, surrounded by trees. 🌳🍃💚 #hilltoplife #mycountryhome #countryhomeinohio #blessedwithgoodneighbors
