Iowa City First United Methodist Church

Church

There's several churches in this area - this isn't even the only one on its block - but this one is the fanciest with some very pretty stained glass windows.

PAX East beanbags

The nice thing about PAX is that they have designated rest areas that have piles of beanbag chairs so overexcited nerds can comfortably sleep through their sugar crashes without having to leave the convention area.

PAX East!

Lots of video games, lots of displays, lots of interesting costumes, but I didn't any of it.

I did get people sitting and listening to a panel of speakers, though! That's exciting too.

Winter

Tree with birds

There was an enormous flock of birds in a small cluster of trees on campus - they were so thick it looked like the trees still had leaves on them. I only got to draw a few before some guy came through and scared them all away, which was probably just as well since my drawing fingers were getting numb.

Once it got too cold for the Friday Night Concert Series I switched to sketching in the Java House, which also has live music on Friday nights.

The Friday Night Concert Series goes on until mid-September, by that time it starts to get a little chilly.

The theme of this post is hats!

This is a nice hat.

The beard offsets this hat very well!

This hat wins, though.
