The newly formed ice on Lake Wingra is smooth as glass. Perfect conditions for this ice boater.
Railroad lantern
I bought myself a New Year’s present at the antique mall yesterday. It’s from the Chicago, Milwaukee, St. Paul, and Pacific Railway (The Milwaukee Road).
Winter, finally
How about that? The past few days have actually felt like winter. Now we just need a few more inches of the white stuff for good snow shoeing.

A couple of photos from Dad’s archives. This one is Christine, Barbra, and Steven Bloy, on Christmas, circa 1959 (before I was around).

I went down to the Capitol yesterday, looking for a little Christmas spirit.

I caught this scene in Vilas Park. Proof that the sun actually did shine for a few brief moments today.
