Day 151 - May 30, 2008

On my way home from work, I stopped at Old Navy and got some flip flops yesterday. So on my way home from there I decided to turn down a different street and walk home from there. It was actually voted best street by the NYPD which I thought was funny. I really like Prospect Heights. I think that the regular brownstones are much better, but these two painted ones were very nice on a nice sunny evening!

Day 150 - May 29, 2008

This week has gone by really fast! I love when a short week actually feels short. Anyway, this is a picture of my sister's college roommate, Elsa and us at the dinner in Waverly. I am even sporting my Wartburg shirt, which I got as a Christmas present and is really comfortable!

Day 149 - May 28, 2008

I wanted to take a picture of Dad and Chelsea with a W at Wartburg, and I thought that these gates were pretty cool. Chelsea did not agree and thought that it was stupid to be blocking a gate that clearly says do not block. She was still willing to humor me at least though, that is what family is best at.

Day 148 - May 27, 2008

On the way back to Wisconsin on Sunday we had to drive through some pretty severe storms. I took this picture right after we passed a couple of downed power lines. It is rather ominous looking isn't it. I also love this picture because there isn't really anything in it. A lot of kids in the city would have no idea how to picture a space like this with no buildings any where.

Day 147 - May 26, 2008

Last night, we got delayed leaving Maynard, because of weather. It hasn't been that big a deal in New York, but around here there was huge snow storms until the end of March and now it has been a tornado disaster area. The actual driving home part was stressful. However, this picture of my amazing Uncle Dave pretending to get blown away by a tornado is pretty funny.

Day 146 - May 25, 2008

One of the main reasons for coming back to the Midwest this weekend was getting to see my Grandma Holtz. Grandma is 81 and has recently moved into the nursing home. We had a nice time visiting, having lunch and playing cards with her. We went on Saturday with Chelsea and then on Sunday Jeff and Heather came down to spend the day as well, which was really nice.

Day 145 - May 24, 2008

At Wartburg, my sister, Chelsea's college, they just finished renovating their schools gym and recreational center called "the W." The only thing that they kept from when my dad was at Wartburg was the original gym floor. So here he is showing it off!
