We were in Burlington, WI, for Thanksgiving. We arrived at ~11:30pm on Wednesday night and were pleasantly surprised to be greeted by both Paul and Sue. They are the ultimate hosts! Highlights from the weekend included: 1) A fabulous Thanksgiving dinner at the Lynch household with Uncle John and Betty, Grandma B and her friend Dorothy, Paul and Sue, and Tom, Lark and me. 2) Going to dinner at the Waterfront with Dennis (Paul's brother) and Diane, Jen, Aaron and their kids. 3) Driving to Milwaukee in the wee hours of the morning (okay, "wee" for me) to greet Andrew, Wendy, Christopher (aka Bob), Vivian and Henry, as they arrived on the redeye from Seattle. See the photo with some of our handmade signs. It's almost sinful how much fun we had making those signs. Maybe it was all the permanent marker we inhaled. 4) Eating way too much fried stuff at Fred's. See black and white photo. For the love of God, Wendy, put down the french fries! 5) Visiting Paul's UPS store and watching him in action. Ummm, no, we don't ship live snakes (really - a guy brought in a live snake in a box). 7) Eating Paul's criminally good pot roast and sitting at Andrew and Wendy's beyond-description bar. Suffice it to say what happens at the bar stays at the bar. 6) Watching that crazy documentary about the guy who moved to Alaska in 1968 and lived off the land for 30+ years. What's for dinner? A little frozen carrion. Mmm. 7) Enjoying the hours of entertainment the kids got out of a huge cardboard box that Paul cut a door and a window in. 8) And last but not least, just hanging out at Paul and Sue's house. We had a blast. Thank you! Love, Us
