Sunday, September 26, 2010. Throwback 2 - Fog Party. It was seemingly out of nowhere that a heavy fog had descended upon one Ackerman apartment that night, shrouding all visibility save for a few feet. As navigation equipment ceased to function in the overwhelming mist, several Syracuse University students, disoriented yet determined, willed themselves to tread forward confidently, steadfastly, perseveringly, at the road ahead. Posted by Brad Winckelmann. Saturday, September 25, 2010. More work, mostly.

Friday, February 25, 2011. The elusive desert tortoise. We would sometimes come across a dead desert tortoise while traversing the desert outside of Las Vegas. Our crew supervisor, Amanda, stands above a polystyrene tortoise to measure the distance between it and a center line of the practice course to ensure the fake tortoise is in a precise location. The polystyrene tortoises are painted to resemble an actual desert tortoise. Posted by Brad Winckelmann. Saturday, February 19, 2011. James Smith and Sons.
