Oktoberfest 2013

Horn artwork

Very pretty!
Alphorns

The business end of some of these horns. Looking east.
Trails

Facing north, a good view of the ski trails connecting the two mountains.
Tribute

A tribute to soldiers of a local division in WWII, a gift from Italy.
Yodeler Show

Inside the Whiteface Lodge, the Yodelers teamed up with a traditional German band, DSB die Schlauberger.

Every October, the ski resort at Whiteface Mountain has a small Oktoberfest. Traditional German music, food, beer, and demonstrations are featured, and many local vendors come to show off their homemade crafts.

This is the first time I've gone in many years, and the first time I went being older than 21! It's a ton of fun and is definitely worth checking out if you're in the area during the skiing offseason.

RIT Center for Multidisciplinary Studies Website

The CMS Website was created for RIT's Center for Multidisciplenary Studies, and was graphically designed by Dumbwaiter Design and developed by myself. It's based on Drupal to allow the CMS staff to easily create and post content to the website.

Exploring Benson Mines

Outside

The office/bathroom is inside this building, and the first building in the album is visible through the trees in the background.
Machine Shop

Judging from the abundance of 440 volt hookups in the building, this likely was some sort of machine shop.
No Entrance

Back door to the machine shop.
Safety for All
Exit (Entrance)

Benson Mines is a long-abandoned iron mine near Watertown, NY. The mine was shut down in 1978 and the buildings and have been completely abandoned ever since. Abandoned man-made structures are my favorite to take pictures of, so I couldn't resist exploring!
