Aztalan

Aztalan was a Mississippi Mound settlement (the farthest north they have been documented) that flourished from 900-1200 AD in South Central Wisconsin.



It is close to the Crawfish River, where this lovely tree provided a romantic nook to spend some time on my birthday



There were lots of beautiful wildflowers that reminded me of back home



And a lot of reconstructed stockade walls

The Great World Text Conference (my baby and Behemoth)



The students presented lots of different creative and academic projects







Then the students gathered at the Union Theatre



For the Keynote Speaker, Chris Abani





And, of course, there was lots of karaoke



and lots of bachelorette parties
