I was down in Champaign, Illinois last week for a few days. I had meetings with folks from the National Atmospheric Deposition Program at the University of Illinois. We flew direct from Toronto to Indianapolis and then drove 2 hours to Champaign. The weather was nice during the day, sunny and hot. It brought in a nice thunder and lightning storm that evening.

There was a nice sunrise the next morning.

The one night they took us down to Campustown for dinner. This is the main quad, that is Foellinger Auditorium in the background.

The Alma Mater statue, a popular spot for grad photos.

Altgeld Hall, this is the original university library building in 1897, it now houses the Department of Mathematics and Mathematics Library.

Noticed that the markings on the tarmac at the Indianapolis Airport are in the racing motif.
