hockey classic

the university of wisconsin is hosting the university of michigan and bemidji state for a weekend of outdoor hockey excitement.


reed obtained free passes which provided us with an hour of ice time at camp randall this evening. we were the first ones onto the freshly zambonied ice.


here i am making a lap around the ice on my new skates. they wouldn't let us bring our sticks, which was probably ok.


good time were had by all

thanks reed

ice cat

this was one of several ice sculptures in our neighbor's front yard.


can this person make a cat-shaped jello mold? i want that.

field trips

we are starting to leave the house for more than pediatrician visits, and it's going pretty well. ramona has been to the uw bursar's office, and it was a smashing success (no photos available). in the past three days, we've had three successful pedestrian excursions in the neighborhood.

our first walking trip took us through the wintertime wonderland of tenney park. david sported a smart-looking baby bump.

bundled baby, proud mother (those snow suits are tricky!)

yesterday's perambulation brought us to willy street to buy stamps at shafer's pharmacy, and to enjoy a spicy bloody mary at the weary traveler.

today's walk was a sunny stroll through the neighborhood, ending with some lounging on the sun soaked front porch.

i wanted a taco, not a burrito!


i guess you really can get burritos as big as your head.

no box is too small

new stick


david, our resident hockey fan and novice pond hockey man, tapes a new stick under the watchful eye of benjamin franklin. few people are aware of this, but benjamin franklin invented ice hockey [citation needed].
