Last week I got a call asking if I could come out to Wisconsin to do some prep work for analyses I plan to do later in the spring. This was the only time that lined up with everyone's schedules. Three plane flights later, I'm in Madison, manipulating tiny forams with a brush.
I'm staying with Brian out in Middleton, who has kindly offered me the use of his cruiser bicycle to get around town while I'm here. Luckily, it has been unseasonably warm (unreasonably warm, some might say). If ever there was a February to go bicycling around town in Wisconsin, this is it. The bus is an option, too.

We worked late into the night on Saturday night and then came in Sunday morning, pre-SuperBowl, to cast the samples. I'm always surprised when we're able to work so quickly and efficiently. Special thanks to those who are making it happen.
