Bucky Badger owns this town: part 1 of many to come.

Madisonians can't seem to get enough of Bucky Badger. He's the University of Wisconsin mascot and definitely the big man on campus. Everyone loves Bucky. He's all over town: on cars, on food, and even on porta potties:

Spotted on University Ave.: Bucky Badger dominating a PT Cruiser.

Spotted in my friend Elysha's freezer: Bucky Badger dominating ice cream.

Have no fear, readers. This summer I will be sure to photograph a "Bucky's" porta potty for the blog.

Cow photo op!

As I have previously stated on this blog, I never miss a good cow photo op. When my friend Kat and I were at The Goodman Center a few weeks ago, I was quite excited to spot this kitschy cow statue hanging out by the parking lot. After attempting to sit on top of this gal multiple times, I realized it was much more difficult than it looked, so I opted to pose next to my new friend.

A little snow on the ground didn't stop me from meeting this lovely lady!

No parking lot is complete without a cow!
