We needed more dancers.

University of Wisconsin Baraboo/Sauk County, Baraboo, Wisconsin, April 1994. We did fine.

After the Performance

University of Wisconsin Baraboo/Sauk County, Baraboo, Wisconsin, April 1994. We're happy the show went well.

A Familiar Dance

University of Wisconsin Baraboo/Sauk County, Baraboo, Wisconsin, April 1994. We're dancing Blezdingėlė again.

Crossing

University of Wisconsin Baraboo/Sauk County, Baraboo, Wisconsin, April 1994. I don't remember which dance this was, but I recall it was fun.

Rabbit-Fence Reunion

Madison, Wisconsin, June 1994. I should have known better. I redid this bed several times.

Risky Reunion

Port des Morts Park, Door County, Wisconsin, August 28, 1994. There are no railings here.

In the Woods

Port des Morts Park, Door County, Wisconsin, August 28, 1994. This is the spot to view Death's Door: the waterway, not the vodka.

Thoughtful Reunion

Madison, Wisconsin, September 3, 1994. Pupa contemplates her new surroundings.

Quiet-Side Reunion

Door County, Wisconsin, August 28, 1994. Door County folk refer to the Lake-Michigan shoreline as the "Quiet Side." The Green-Bay side of the peninsula is where most tourists cluster.

I took this photo at the old town park at Europe Bay. It's one of my favorite spots.

"It's a good game."

Madison, Wisconsin, October 1994. Mr. Irene introduces the tennis ball to Pupa, the puppy. Older sister Žulė shows Pupa how to chase the ball. Pupa later became an expert at tennis-ball games. She excelled at "Boom," a volleyball-like exchange in which we tossed the ball to her, and she flipped it back at us with her nose.

Our Christmas Cards: New-Arrival Edition

Madison, Wisconsin, December 1994. We acquired a second Poodle once we had settled into our new house. The card featured that puppy, Pupa, and Žulė. This shot, too, took a few takes.

Red-Pup Reunion

Madison, Wisconsin, September 3, 1994. Pupa doesn't have the run of the house.

A Halloween Chronology

My friend Nora suggested I do a Halloween post chronicling my childhood costumes. Here are the photos; there were a few years in which I had two costumes. If I earlier had blogged an image (or a similar one), then I link to that post in the corresponding year.
