IM Football

My roommates and I joined a co-ed football team, called "Is tripps a guy?". Tripps is a play we run and one of the players on our team thought it was a person. Here is a picture of our first practice. My jersey number is 7.

The picture was taken about 1 block from our house at the park.

The Willy Street Festival!

Today a few class mates of mine and I went to the Willy St. Festival, on Williams St. It was weird. I've never seen such an eclectic mix of people. There was no reason to but many people dressed up in ridiculous costumes. It was a good time. We listened to some jewish folk/jazz music and mostly gawked at the ever passing oddities. We saw a bearded lady, a lumberjack, loins, tigers, no bears though, many Elvis's, bumble bees and other people dressed in costumes made from clothes that even a goodwill would reject.

My First Lab Rotation

A few pictures of where I go to school and the lab that I am currently working at. This building houses both the lab I'm working in for my first rotation and one of my lectures halls. I go to school everyday, John!

A Trip to the Farmer's Market

This Saturday I took a trip over the Farmer's Market on Capitol Square. There were so many people out and they had all kinds of food. One thing Wisconsinians are really proud of are cheese curds, small chunks of cheese. If you are able to get them in a few days after they are made from the cow, they will squeak when you bite them.

I purchased an eggplant, some honeycrisp apples and some carrots.

I also ran into these folk, I'm not sure why they were there.

My Room

Here's a video I created with one of the programs on my mac.

More Campus Photos

Another slideshow! These places are along Observatory Dr.

A Trip up to Picnic Point

During the first week I moved to Madison, I wandered into the Picnic Point area. The park is maybe 20 minutes from my house and about 5 minutes from campus.

Funny Pictures

Playing around with the settings on my camera while I was at a coffee shop on State Street.

Some Campus Photos

Exploring my new school at Madison.
This picture was taken behind our Memorial Union building. It overlooks the south shore of Lake Mendota.

Here is an old sky observatory on campus.

Starting up the new blog

Whats up everyone? Hope things are going well. I'm thinking on using this site to let people know what I've been up to lately. I also think it'll be neat for John to see pictures of where I'm living at and stuff. So I'll eventually have pictures of my house, roomates, work, etc.. Feel free to post comments too! Later, Joe
