meanwhile, back in madison, spring break

A walk yesterday afternoon along Lake Mendota says it all.


Madison Mar 06 211

Personally, I would not sit on a lake where half of it is no longer iced over. No, let me correct that: I would not sit on a lake where the only visible colors around me are shades of gray and the skies let loose something between ice pellets and rain.

Of course, it's not clear why I would be taking a walk under those conditions.

March here is so often a disappointing month.

It was really nice on Saturday... but you got an even better version down in Chicago.

I'm impressed that you can summon up the will to rephotograph the bleak lake.

March isn't disappointing if you keep your expectations low enough.
