+ <h2>Spring Break - Day 2</h2>
+ <p>It's spring break this week, and seeing as there are lots of things planned, I'd jot down the main points each day.</p>
+ <p>Autorama. Bigger than the Detroit Auto Show (somehow). This is definitely the event of the semester. Other than maybe industry day/student exhibition. It was a good show, with lots of cars I know little about and bikes that I know a little about. My two friends that have actual knowledge on the subject were our guide.</p>
+ <p>We weren't just there to see the show, however. Tickets were paid for by the school so that we could man the school booth and sketch for the public. It's always a great time. You get to draw whatever you want and meet new people.</p>

+ <p>While on our shift, we met Andrew Berry, a senior at LTU who is also majoring in transportation design. He was friendly, very talented, and we got a bit of a first-hand look into what it's like at another school. I've very glad we got to meet.</p>

+ <p>Of course, the rest of the day (before and after) was spent walking around the show. I don't really know many details about the cars, but here's a truncated selection of what I found most interesting.</p>

+ <p>I'm a bit embarrassed of my lack of knowledge. I'll get my friends to correct me, and I'll update the info at a later date.</p>
+ <p>My friends and I hit the road for Wisconsin tomorrow. Hoping all goes well. It should.

<h2>Spring Break - Day 1</h2>
<p>It's spring break this week, and seeing as there are lots of things planned, I'd jot down the main points each day.</p>
<p>Today is the first day, though technically not. There were still classes, but not for me. It is still winter, so the air is cold, but we gathered a group of people and went to the weekly cars and coffee event. It was expectedly devoid of much life. There were the 6 or 7 die-hard attendies, which was still nice to see. We left an hour later when there were only a couple left.</p>
