We had a lovely trip to Milwaukee with the Kennys this last weekend. The weather was absolutely stunning and unseasonably warm, in the mid 70s.
The wings opening on the art museum were a big hit. Readers who are making wedding plans may be interested in the location for photos– we saw about 5 bridal parties there at about 5pm on Saturday!
After a great dinner at the Comet diner, we went back to our hotel. On Sunday, we walked on the river walk and around the historic 3rd ward and stopped in at boutiques, the public market and an amazing antique store. These dodgy characters were found hanging around on the river walk…
Then we had lunch and a great stop at Growing Power (so interesting I forgot to take pics! check it out at http://www.growingpower.org/ and headed back to Chicago. Thanks to the Groves for use of the minivan and to the fine people of Milwaukee for your hospitality. Go Brewers!
Very neat stuff to see in Milwaukee. At first glance, I thought the statue was “The Fonz.”
Sounds like fun & obviously lovely weather too!
Wow, who knew Milwaukee was beautiful? I don’t know bout making wedding plans up there though…seems kind of random to go up there 🙂 Does look picturesque though. Glad you’re having a good time. Nice picture of Miles and The Fonz! 🙂 Ayyyyyyye!
Yes lovely trip to the States and Milwaukee was fantastic
particularly the Art Museum and surrounds.
