Dying to cross
There are 177 small crosses placed throughout the Edgewood College campus this week. A cause of death is written on one side: probable hypothermia, heat exhaustion, gunshot wound to the back, or often “undetermined cause of death.” On the other side, some have names, many have “remains unknown.”
Each of them represents someone who perished in the Sonoran Desert last year, while attempting to cross the United States-Mexico border.

October 31st, and it’s hard to find leaves on the trees anymore. They sure seemed eager to change color and hit the ground this year.

Getting photos of raindrops isn’t that hard. You just have to wait until they land on something.

Kathleen Edwards at the Majestic
The other night I went to see one of my favorite artists, Kathleen Edwards, perform at the Majestic Theatre in Madison.
It was a fantastic show.
Grounded maple leaf
Sometimes, beautiful displays of fall color can be found right at your feet.
Cirrus clouds over Door County
The day I climbed the tower in Peninsula State Park last week, the sight of the clouds in the sky were just as interesting as the vistas of the Lake Michigan shore.
