It was cool and rainy so a trip to Big Putts Mini Golf was perfect. We arrived and the place was packed, but after the first few holes things moved along well. We loved the course — declared it probably our favorite mini golf ever. And I crushed it with a 35 along with four hole-in-ones! ⛳️🔥

A cold morning with drizzling rain isn’t the ideal day to see the Milwaukee Zoo but we still made the most of it.

Tammy and I saw Brett Goldstein’s standup show “The Second Best Night of Your Life” at the Riverside Theater while in Milwaukee. Goldstein is best known for playing Roy Kent on Ted Lasso. Many good laughs and a great venue.

There was a stack over two feet high of large sheets of paper in the Milwaukee Art Museum. They all had printed in very small print in the middle “VETERANS DAY SALE”. We brought one back figuring Mazie may want to do a drawing on it. In the meantime it became Tammy’s own movable art piece.

The Milwaukee Art Museum was incredible. It was one of our favorite art museums that we have ever been to. Incredible art set in an incredible museum.

The architecture in the atrium of the Milwaukee Art Museum is amazing. It sets an incredible tone.

Tammy loves Rice Krispie bars so when we passed Carrie’s Crispies we had to stop! We tried Original, Pretzel White Chocolate, Peanut Butter Cup, and S’mores. They were all fabulous!

After arriving in Milwaukee it was time for lunch at Archie’s Flat Top. We are always game for a great cheeseburger. Tyler and I opted for a triple not realizing that they were 4 oz patties. The three pancake size patties were all I could handle! 🍔

Quinn, Tyler, and I went to the Minnesota United friendly versus St. Patricks Athletic FC. The combination of a friendly and cold weather resulted in the lowest attendance I’ve seen at Allianz Field. The United won and we got to sing Wonderwall for Quinn’s first professional soccer game.

Picked up new Tesla Model Y today.
