The first picture is at the University of Wisconsin in Eau Claire where I used to work before retiring. The students walk up and down these stairs between an upper and lower campus to attend classes and walk to where they live.
Here we see Paul Bunyun and Babe the blue ox at the Chippewa Valley Museum. Paul represents the lumbering industry and was a legend in the 1800's when giant white pines were cut down to build homes in the United States. They floated the logs down the rivers to lumber mills, some of which were in Eau Claire.
We stopped at Carson Park to play for awhile.
Then we visited The baseball stadium in Carson park. It was here that Hank Aaron, home run king with 755, began his baseball career in 1955. That's a statue of him that Ken Campbell, a sculptor friend of mine, made for the park.
This "rest area" was designed and built by Marc Fuller - Amin's cousin. It was his Eagle Scout project and was placed on one of the city's main bicycle paths in 1990.
This is a pretty site on a walking bridge on the Eau Claire river where people ride tubes, canoe and kayak.
