Weekend visitors!

Some of you may have noticed that I skipped a post on Friday, and it was for very good reason...I had some weekend visitors! Mike (my husband) drove up from Chicago and our good friends Mike and Megan came up from Pleasant Prairie. It was a lot of fun to share this experience with some friends and family first hand.
We decided to kick off the weekend by exploring a little of downtown Green Bay, where we took in some local flavor including the Sardine Can, Titletown Brewing Company, and Beernsten's Candies. Then we decided to visit the local amusement park at Bay Beach. Believe it or not, rides cost a mere 50cents to ride! We fancied ourselves a ride on what I kept calling the chair-o-plane. Lastly, nothing could have ended the night more perfectly than a meal at Krabbe's Kountry Klub, an old fashioned mid-western supper club, where we all enjoyed the salad bar, twice baked potatoes, and some good 'ol red meat!



Lobster + Filet mignon + twice baked potato + Beam and Coke = Happiness!

On Sunday, I gave a morning tour of the reservation. I showed everyone where I was working each day then we drove around to take a look at the Longhouse, the log homes, and the Buffalo Farm (pictured below, not above). Overall, it was a great weekend visit, and just what I need to recharge for this week...
