I took a drive out to the country on Saturday to see if I could figure out the bike route for the Ironman going on the next day. It is still shocking to me that there is full on country style farms less than 10 miles from my apartment. Madison is so weird like that...there is a lively city and downtown life, but the outlying suburbs are very rural. It's odd - and very unlike Milwaukee, which has sprawling city suburbs. Anyway, This is the lawn of the University Ridge golf course, which happened to be out there in the boonies. I wish I had a wide angle lens in instances like this. It was mowed to perfection. Be-aut-i-ful.
