home : galleries : Summer Break, 2004
In early June, Alison and I traveled back to South Dakota to visit family and friends. While there, we also visited friends Jay and Daniel in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. These are the photographs from that trip. First, we have photos from Milwaukee. The highlight from Milwaukee was visiting the Asian Moon Festival, a celebration of different Asian countries and their respective cultures.

On the way to the festival, we stopped at the new Milwaukee art museum. Quite neat.

Although Jay was having fun, he displayed his usual stoicism.

For some reason, giant chess went on all day long. Here a small child is walloped by another young
individual.

No Asian festival is complete without the enormous electronic hit "Dance Dance Revolution."
