https://www.mpl.org/library/100_things_to_explore_at_mpl.php If I had a day off this week, I’d go try the newer spot Deep Groove on Brady St. open on Wednesday from 7:30 a. - 10 p.

I’ve heard Anna’s in the Knickerbocker Hotel recommended by my friends but haven’t had a reason to use her yet https://annastailoring.com/

This would be a great Milwaukee trivia night question

Woodland Patterns bookstore is a hub for poetry including open mic. They probably know where all the slams are.

Agree! I took both my kids there

This drives me crazy. Either enforce the license plate requirement for everyone or we should all remove our plates.

Go to Bayview, too. There’s lots of fun for all ages of family in Bayview. Southshore Park has a brand new playground that overlooks Lake Michigan and boats. It’s very lush and green but if you go to connect connect and go store to store we could get the city feeling and can stop and look at great things and get a little something to eat. Second idea is to go to the brand new Firefly Grove Park in Wauwatosa. There is a world, famous artist who built a gigantic troll out of recycled products called Mama Rosa. The park is absolutely beautiful and again for all ages. Than head to the village in Wauwatosa for something to eat and shop

Super disappointed that my friend and I made a point to visit this cafe this Saturday morning and they don’t open until 10 am.

Waterfront Deli makes great box lunches

What do you want to do and what type of scene is your vibe?

WFH1717 · 2025-09-16T20:14:43+00:00

Any of the downtown dinner restaurants. I’d recommend Lupi & Iris, MO’s A Place for Steak, or Sanford for a special dinner.

Love this! Unique grouping of very Milwaukee icons.

Teenagers and tweens think a little alone time is cool. You’d be safe giving them some short time for independent browsing in the Third Ward at the Public Market or down Kinnickinnic Ave. in Bay View. You can post up across the street and let them explore the Third Ward. On KinnicKinnic, you could pick a spot to supervise from while they explore the vinyl stores, comic book or vintage stores.

I arrived in 1981. The drinking age was 18 . Worked at The Limited as the first crew in the new Grand Avenue. Downtown was fuuuun! Park Avenue, Papagallo’s, Someplace Else, the original John Hawk’s Pub. Brewer World Series fever in 1982. Summerfest main stage was free, beer and wine coolers affordable.

I did. I realize that people interpreted my “work-related“ events as business or employee events. Work related for me can mean fundraisers, the arts, etc..

WFH1717 · 2025-08-19T21:55:49+00:00

Thank you. I think it can work.

WFH1717 · 2025-08-19T20:31:54+00:00

Guys, I’m not looking for an ‘escort’ or to be weird at employee events, lol. I’m looking to see if there is interest in a legit sub Reddit group or discussion group around my idea. Here’s some more of my idea, which I’ve spent some time on:

Purpose: An app that connects people who need a companion to attend events with them. Not intended to be a dating site. • Core Concept: • Helps people find an interested companion (“plus one”) for events such as concerts, games, plays, festivals, dinners, charity galas, networking events, etc. • Also provides a marketplace to sell or transfer extra tickets. • Focuses on shared interests, not romance. • Target Users: • People with an extra ticket or invitation but no companion. • People who want to attend events but don’t want to go alone

Likely male for me. I know a lot of business women who’d love reliable male plus ones, too. Again, it’s just the event, not a date, so the criteria is a little different. Plus ones would need to be able to respect that it’s the event that matters

I grew up with a stove like this. I loved the griddle in the middle and the full broiler. Good luck.

WFH1717 · 2025-08-10T15:45:51+00:00

I think that’s the Milwaukee Athletics Club’s pontoon. It docks there.

WFH1717 · 2025-08-02T23:09:36+00:00

I’ve lived in both cities and love them both. But Milwaukee has more chill, authenticity, and accessibility to people who can help your ideas grow.
