Ninety-two pictures?

OK, really, I am not going to show them all to you so don't zone out now.  I took ninety-two pictures!  There were so many interesting things and I wanted to document it all! I loved the lights on the water, wouldn't this make a great background for something? And while I don't understand architecture, I love to look at old buildings and these two were among my favorites. There were art displays along the river walk and they were made from recycled junk!  Of course that got my attention.   You may see more of those tomorrow.  This one was bowling balls and bowling pins and some other junk.  Of course, I had to find The Fonz! Another interesting tower on a building. This is one of the bridge necklaces.  They were also made from recycled junk. I got a big chuckle out of the wide selection of Cheesehead Attire! These are from our visit to Port Washington and Cedarburg.  What a lovely place!  I would love to go back.  So pretty! This i...

Last night in Milwaukee!

I have had the BEST time, pics to follow.  I have spent wonderful days with my friends, Patti and Mike and they have been the greatest tour guides that anyone could ask for.  Mike is so knowledgeable about the area (other than the bridge necklaces) and I love Milwaukee.  The people are so friendly.  I have wandered the streets alone in the evenings, exploring and looking around, taking pictures like a tourist and everyone speaks that you pass on the street.  I just got back from the FEDEX store, where I shipped all of my dirty clothes home to make room for all the items that I bought here in my suitcase.  So much cheaper than shipping an extra bag home on the airlines, and I really think more reliable.  We leave for the airport tomorrow morning at six and as I walked around the city one more time this evening, I realized that I am sad to be leaving.  There is so much more here to explore.  Photos to follow when I get home!
