Super Blood Wolf Moon

We had a good viewing of the Super blood wolf moon this weekend. It was clear and very cold.


This was around 10:00 pm CST.

This was with my 200mm zoom lens, unfortunately my big zoom lens was back at home.


A Fun Weekend

It was the girls final day in Wisconsin. They had an afternoon flight from Madison to Toronto/Ottawa via Chicago. We went into Mount Horeb and visited the Driftless Historium, it is a museum of the Mount Horeb area.


We walked around town.


Only in Mount Horeb would you see a horse tied up outside a coffeeshop.


The girls with one of the trolls. Mount Horeb is the Troll Capital of the World.


Angela still had one more item on her Wisconsin farm bucket list. She got to try the zero-turn lawn mower.

I dropped them off at the Madison airport. They had an adventure getting home with delays due to thunderstorms in Chicago, Gillian had a tight connection, but in the end everyone made it back safely. It was nice to have them all here for Thanksgiving.


Weekend in Wisconsin

I was able to fly the girls down to Wisconsin for Canadian Thanksgiving weekend. Susan, Angela, and Claudia came from Toronto and Gillian flew in from Ottawa. The plan was for them to meet up in Chicago and then fly up to Madison. Gillian texted me early in the morning to say the flight from Chicago to Madison had been delayed already, when I got on-line and checked I had a feeling that flight would be cancelled. So I called Susan and told her I was driving down to Chicago to pick them up. I picked them up and we made it back to Madison around the same time their flight was supposed to land.

We walked around the Capitol and then down State Street. Some random couple offered to take a picture of us down by the Memorial Union. Afterwards we walked down frat row, it was a football game day and the frat houses were crazy.
