Up around the New Lisbon exit mainly. We are looking at lake property off Castle Rock/Petenwell. Also made a trip to Waupaca, Steven's Point, and UW Madison. We have been up there a lot.....

Seriously? That's good to know. We have been been debating lots on those two lakes. Castle Rock has more restaurants/bars on the lake, while Petenwell has better lots since it's almost undeveloped. Co-workers have a place on Castle Rock. Unfortunately you can't boat from one to the next due to that dam/elevation difference.

Do you like the area? We intend to eventually retire in the home we build now.

I commute to either Milwaukee or menomenee falls from IL. No exaggeration....there are 2-3 cars pulled over for speeding each way, every day, without failure.

Wisconsin State Troopers would write their own Mothers a speeding ticket

3 pages in and no one has mentioned how racist Milwaukee is?

Race Relations In Milwaukee Have Been Strained For Decades
Milwaukee is the most segregated metropolitan area in the country.

The last time I went was with my BIL, who lived in Milw. We started at Sazs State House for supper and took their shuttle over, cold beer in hand on the way. After the game, the bus was about 50 feet from the stadium exit, filled up in two minutes and we were off. Total commute time was like 20 minutes.

Might as well be pre gaming in Menomonee Falls

Whatever happened to Mike in Milwaukee? Does he still ever call in?

Does he even know what time Bernsie is on now? The shock might kill him.

Less than that from Winnetka. But the series in Miami was a longer trip. as was the trip to Mesa for a week of spring training. This season I just feel like taking in quite a few series' on the road again. Fun to see different ballparks and tickets are often readily available at much cheaper prices on the road. Not so much the case in Milwaukee though, as so many other Cub fans create a high demand for tickets. But it's a much better place to see a game when the weather is lousy than Wrigley Field. It may be a beautiful park, but with no retractable roof, it's a damn cold place very often in early April.

If you don't like to fight traffic, I suggest doing as I did a year ago. After the Sunday day game, we went to play golf after the game at a course only like 3 miles from the ballpark. Honestly, though it was rated highly, it turned out to be a crummy golf course. But it was still a lot better than sitting in traffic. Unfortunately, golf was not an option yesterday, so we just drove home after the game. There is a restaurant called the Edelweis that takes diners out on a boat on Lake Michigan for a nice dinner. The boat has glass on the sides and a deck fore and aft to look at the sites along the lake as a guide teaches the group about the various places that have come and gone along the lake in the area. Again, just a fun town with lots to do there and while I hear about fights at the park, most fans are really good natured and just wanting to see a good ballgame.

At least with Miami you went someplace nice but I'm guessing you still did old people stuff the whole time.

In addition to the Cubs games (3) we went scuba diving at the John Pennekamp Coral Reef State Park, played Golf at the Miami Beach Golf Club twice and went deep sea fishing out of Ft. Lauderdale and took the 2 Mahi Mahi and 2 black fin Tuna I caught to a restaurant in Ft. Lauderdale named Coconuts, where they cooked them up for us. We only ate 2 of them there and took the other 2 back with us to eat the next day. They did a great job cooking them. Was it old white people stuff? Hell, I just know I enjoyed it all. Yeah, South Beach is a very different atmosphere than Milwaukee. A real international city and the weather of course was great, but Milwaukee was a lot of fun this past weekend too.

I think this is a Snapple Real Fact.
