Greetings from the Weather Cafe on the shores of the Sheboygan River. Tony & I are taking a coffee break and using the free internet access. It amazes me how common WIFI is these days. Yesterday we ate lunch at Applebees. Tony asked if they had web access, and they did! The only place we haven't had access is on Lonesome Pine Road. But that's OK.So what have we done since our last blog? Well, we left Fishers and headed for Wisconsin last Thursday, December 13. On the way we stopped to meet Elsa and her mom. Took them out to lunch at a lovely italian deli. Oh, but the wind was icy cold.
Then on to Milwaukee. Of course Gail outdid herself cooking. But it was yummie. And the wine was excellent and abundant. Oh, did I mention the company? That was pretty good too. Jen and Steph stopped by and joined us for dinner. They look great. Cara stopped in after work too. Oh wait, she still lives there.
Friday morning found us at the Capital Cafe for a good Wisconsin breakfast and then on to the Rapids. We got into town before Sue & Randy got off of work, so we rested up a bit. Then out to the Achor Bay Bar & Grill. Great grits. Wally & Linda joined us for dinner. Nice seeing them again.
The following morning included another hearty Wisconsin breakfast and then we headed down to Sheboygan, reaching our final destination around 1:30, just ahead of the lake snow which required snow blowing and shoveling the next morning.
We've just been relaxing (eating), running errands (eating), and doing minor chores (eating). I'm glad I left the skinny pants in CA. Getting ready for the rest of the clan to arrive and have some good Old Fashions.

Yay! Glad to hear you are having a nice (cold) time!
The Old Fashions should be great and plentiful too - as too good bartenders will be in attendance. If anyone wants anything special, I'll bet Steph would love to keep her craft up! See you soon on the shores of Lake Michigan!
Love the pictures. Say hi to all and have a Merry Christmas and safe travels.
Hello and Merry Christmas from sunny San Diego...It's a tad bit over 70 degrees, clear blue skies, and NO SNOW on the ground. Alyssa and Katie just opened their presents a little while ago. I can remember when they were ever so little, and it didn't matter what you gave them, they were just happy opening the presents. Now, fast forward ten years later, and the kids are older, and the presents are ever more expensive...but, ahhhh.....the joys of Christmas.
So what is this thing called "Old Fashions". It must be some mystical tonic, that cures all aches, pains, and makes any troubles go away. I can only assume that it could be compared to the "cough medicine" the "doctor" would sell from his covered wagon...
You might consider waiting for the snow and ice to melt for your return adventure home :>) but in the mean time....Merry Christmas to all, and to all peace, joy, and love.
