What I did on my summer vacation

Here are the pictures from Madison. They're biggish files, so I hid them below the fold.

Here's Barnard Hall, where I lived. The front looks better than the rooms.

And here's breakfast...yes, it was that blurry at 7 AM!

Here's the front of the State St. mall at lunchtime, with all those colorful carts:

Crapitolartfair.jpg--is that file name an intentional critique, or just a Freudian typo?

Tubas! You know about Oktubafest, right?

Jeffrey: there are no accidents here. Funny how founts of socialism are so breast-shaped.

RWP: Natürlich! Aber ich habe nie einem Oktubafest aufgeführt.

That's an interesting lesson on the board in bagpipe class! Looks like you had fun.

And not from our class! We were a fairly nonliterate lot...we did the performance from memory. It was the same harmonization that Piffaro does (ergo, "Piffaro farm team"). We had to write some 2nd pipe parts, in which the trained composer was at a disadvantage; I was a bit too creative in a non-period way.

Great pics! Could we borrow some of these for our web albums (that is, if I ever have time to update them!)?
