Trick or Treat Sunday

Even though the temperature was in the low 40's, the ghosts and goblins were out for trick or treat this afternoon.
Here are just a few walking the streets

This gruesome character was hanging around our house for the longest time!

Finally, here is the 'master of the house' in his finery scaring half of the trick or treaters from even coming up to our door!

Mississippi Cactus Farewell

After about 13 years being together, Mississippi Cactus had a farewell show Sunday night. Brian is moving to San Francisco for awhile to see if he has luck lining up a job. It was a very bittersweet show to say the least.


The show was at a cozy club in Bay View.

Brian and Mike Friedl singing their hearts out in a duet.

Their old school friend, Kory, who has been with the band for nearly 8 years, selling half priced merchandise.

The last song was dedicated to us for "putting up with the band all these years and letting them rehearse in our basement!" The great drum-brother act. The crowd went wild!

Goodbye, Mississippi Cactus. I'll be waiting for the Big Reunion Show one day..

Good Friends, Good Golf, Good Fun!

Sunday was also one beautiful day. Six of us got together and found a wonderful golf course. I spotted this guy on the 4th hole!

It was a little competition between the men and the women..I won't tell you who won!

Very pretty color on one the holes. Fun time with some great friends.

Autumn in Wisconsin

We had a spectacular weekend . The weather was in the 80's. I took a walk in the neighborhood to capture some of the beauty.


Our front curb..filled with leaves!



This is our backyard. I just love the colors.

October 5, 1968..Our Wedding Day!

On Sunday we celebrated our 40th Wedding Anniversary. We invited 30 of our closest family members and friends to a beautiful brunch at the Botanical Gardens in Whitnall Park. It was a wonderful celebration.


This would be us on our Big Day long ago also at Whitnall Park!
