Fishing on Fish Lake

Masami caught a Blue Gill

Dad caught a big carp!

Masami prepared yesterday's catch.

Corned Beef and Cabbage at Claddagh Irish Pub in Middleton.

I walked to Monona Bay instead of Lake Wingra today.

Masami spoils me.  Tilapia, eggplant, basil pasta, red spinach, and broccoli.

We went to Iowa City, Iowa.  Just for fun.

The old capitol building.  Now it's a museum showing 1800's government.  Pretty interesting.  

This was the House Chamber.

There is another museum next door in the Biology building.  I'm standing next to Giganto.  

Check out this breakfast burger from The Nitty Gritty.  What a monster.  It was great.

Masami baked a gratin.  One of my favorites.

We had a meet up with a bunch of friends who were also English teachers in Japan while I was there.  I hadn't seen them for at least a couple of years, so it was great to catch up.

We ate at Ha Long Bay on Willy Street which was delicious.

We went to Matt P's graduation slash new job party today.  He finished up his bachelors while also working full time and being the father of two kids.  No small feat.  It also opened up the door for his new job at Dell.

Congrats Matt!

We baked a whole chicken raised by a coworker of mine.  Lots of fun and tasty too.  Although the neck was gross-- we're just going to toss that next time.

Unbelievably delicious.  Why won't anyone believe me?

We bought a purple basil plant.
