Interlude -- a few photos of Northwestern and Chicago

As an interlude to the festitivities, I thought I'd share a few photos of Northwestern and Chicago that I took throughout the week. Mind you, this is June, and both the school and city look fantastic; however, as any student can attest, these scenes are rarely the norm.

The beautiful lake in the middle of campus

Here a few pictures that I missed from the North Beach posting. The volleyball scene around this area is truly impressive, and rivals anything I saw around my old stompoing grounds -- Hermosa Beach in California.
