Random Departure: Red Winged Duck

Almost two decades ago I was adventuring around Madison, WI with other passionate young theater students, two of which I had the delight of reuniting with this evening for a concert by Cork 'n Bottle String Band at the Memorial Union Terrace.

As we were heading out for dinner, we saw a car driving in Lake Mendota. It swirled around the dock area wowing passers-by, then drove up out of the lake right in front of us. If you look closely you can see water dripping off the car.

Growing up in Wisconsin, we are used to hearing about the nearby Dells Duck rides, but this was quite a sight to see!
