Spring Fling

Michigan Tech's annual Spring Fling was today. The main festivity is mud volleyball known as "Ooze Ball." Unfortunately, I was only able to enjoy the events for a short time, as the festivities were drawing to a close by the time my classes ended for the day.

The snowmobile club was feeling a little down on their luck.


A friendly reminder to all the Ooze Ball players.

UP Weather



This morning, it was quite a surprise to look out the window and see a blizzard.  Some snow is not that surprising even this time of the year in Houghton.  It regularly dips below freezing at night.  A blizzard, however, is something entirely different.  And it came just as we began to see grass on campus again, as if to say "Fooled you!"  Oh well, it is da UP.  Maybe we'll be able to wear shorts outside before we go home for the summer in a few weeks.
