UC Davis Picnic Day 2009

UC Davis had their annual picnic day last weekend so I stopped by to check out the micromouse competition.  Watching it made me really want to attempt a micromouse again…..maybe I’ll start something up this summer and if I end up going to grad school I can compete with it later :x.

Bring Your Own Big Wheel(BYOBW) 2009

Easter Sunday I went to San Francisco for the 9th Annual BYOBW.  Basically it was a bunch of adults riding plastic children’s toys down a steep and curvy hill.  It was unbelievably fun!  I went with zack and we shared a big wheel, which turned out to be a great idea cause it gave us a chance to take photographs while the other was going down the hill.  We each took two runs down and nothing could have wiped the stupid grins off our face the entire way.  I plan on going next year and every year thereafter until I’m too old to ride children’s toys (read: never).   Also, I LOVE my camera.  I got some incredible shots.
