This is what the midwest looks like in the winter. Actually, the sky looks a little bluer than we see most days but that is cut off corn covered in snow. 

This picture was from the middle of Indiana although it could be any number of states around here. This weekend we got to take a small adventure. We drove down to Muncie, IN, over to Columbus and Bowling Green, OH, and then to Ann Arbor before we came home. It was a great trip, my presentation went well and it was nice to get out of town for a bit. My presentation was on a research project about the perceptions of collegiate athletes towards collegiate coaching as a potential career (exciting, I know). 

Anyways, all the fun this weekend makes for a busy week catching up but it was definitely worth it! I have plenty of pictures to share but about 90 papers to grade so I'll get to those soon.

Oh and that large chicken from the last post was somewhere in a weird little town in Indiana where we pulled over to get gas. Who can pass up a huge chicken?! We had to get a picture!
