Two years later (where does the time go?) I'm back and full of Wisconsin happenings, observations and traditions.
Observation:

North of Highway 29, west of Green Bay.

People here talk about three things:  the weather, the Green Bay Packers and traffic.

The weather?  Because they have weather – serious weather. 

The Packers?  That’s a given…especially now when it’s football season.

The traffic?  What traffic?

Two cars is traffic.

Three cars is rush hour.

Five cars is gridlock.

Seven cars is a funeral.

Wisconsin is a very interesting state and being a writer, I have had "research rapture."  And much to share.
I'll be back after I make a list.
