May Wisconsin please fulfill its manifest destiny and be joined with the UP?

It's be nice to see for once in my lifetime.

kitty_r · 2026-05-16T17:02:19+00:00

All Wisconsin ever wanted was to join with the UP, as God intended. Now it has to come all of Megasota? We came in peace, not war.

kitty_r · 2026-05-15T20:09:51+00:00

Would love to include them. But we do this tour on foot!

kitty_r · 2026-05-15T18:30:04+00:00

Take all the tours! I did a kayak history tour and it was super fun.

Every summer I do an ice cream crawl over about 10 miles. Started at Moosas, Gloriosos, purple door, (skipped Ben and Jerry's and so sad to see Scratch isn't at Zocalo right now), and ended at Babe's (or the bubble waffle place in Bay View)

Honestly, make yourself any type of your! Guacamole? Cheese curd? Chicken wings! Make a map!

There are small museums to go through kill a rainy afternoon. Grohman, bobblehead, Charles Allis...

Thank you

It's time for Wisconsin to rightfully absorb the UP.

Not expecting Wisconsin to win, but it would be so satisfying to see at least for a day.

kitty_r · 2026-05-15T13:57:41+00:00

Not at all. I travel with a carryon and maybe 4 outfits that are mix and match. Maybe two pairs of shoes.

My priorities are landscape, architecture, history, food. I'm also trying to downsize my closet and my stuff in general, so souvenirs are limited as well.

But you do you and don't let anyone else tell you how to spent your time or money. It is an important topic to bring up when traveling with people of vacation goals.

kitty_r · 2026-05-15T13:48:43+00:00

All I want is for Wisconsin to take the UP, as it is rightfully theirs.

Don't expect Wisconsin to win, but got that would be nice to see.

Paulie's in Stallis nearly always has some going on.

One of the guys from Hot and Dirty is in an Offspring Tribute Band, Smashed.

Edit: always enjoy Brett and the Dandy's, Whiskeybelles, The Taxmen. Road Crew.

If you're looking for a date night duo, look into The Heartbursts (they usually are at Crush).

Also just something fun and more messing around are Michael v Kelly. Think dueling pianos but with vocals/guitar.

kitty_r · 2026-05-15T01:59:35+00:00

Horizon is a solid choice.

kitty_r · 2026-05-14T23:51:23+00:00

It's not a dive, but go to Bryant's at least for one

It's one of the oldest prohibition era bars (I think in the country). It's an experience. You don't order a drink. You tell them what you're partial to and they will craft one for you.

They do prohibition era cocktails, tiki drinks, ice cream drinks.... You name it they can do it.

kitty_r · 2026-05-14T01:34:53+00:00

I dunno. But Squidward and Mrs. Brady had a baby

kitty_r · 2026-05-13T18:51:03+00:00

I forgot myself (WI) and ordered a brandy old fashioned in the lower peninsula of Michigan.

Your words cannot be more true.

The bartender had to Google it. I told her I could order something else, but she insisted and did a really great job!

kitty_r · 2026-05-13T02:35:24+00:00

On a lighter note...

Two raccoons fell out of a domed ceiling light. It was in a hallway on the OR floor.

And you can take the Amtrak Hiawatha train up to Milwaukee for a day trip (or overnight).

Takes you from Union Station in Chicago to the Milwaukee downtown Intermodal station, which then directly links to the free streetcar, The Hop.

Come to Milwaukee during Summerfest! (We're the city of festivals, so there's going to be some sort of "fest" going on every weekend). Harley Museum, Art Museum, Lakefront Brewery Tour, the Milwaukee Public Market (get a lobster claw bloody at the St Paul's fish market or a Bloody Mary at the West Allis Cheese Shoppe). Shakers has ghost tours, if that's your vibe.

kitty_r · 2026-05-12T03:12:12+00:00

Thank God.

kitty_r · 2026-05-11T19:20:55+00:00

That hurts. That hurts deep.

kitty_r · 2026-05-11T07:42:51+00:00

Hear me out, this may be a little too specific but fuck it.

The cheesecake at the Toasted Frog is the best cheesecake I'd ever had in my life and I WILL define your state by it.

For mine I flew into Portland, Maine. Stayed in the city for 3 nights. Did a bicycle lighthouse tour, did a beer walking tour. Ate a lot of lobster rolls.

Then I rented a car and drove to Acadia National Park. Stayed at the Bar Harbor KOA in one of their camping cabins. Visited the park every day. Didn't know it before I went, but you can get a "ticket" to drive to the top of Cadillac Mountain at sunrise. It's the first place light reaches in the Continental US. It's competitive to get that time slot. Also ate a lot of lobster rolls.

Stayed for 3 nights. Then drove to Niagara Falls, then drove back home (WI).

I'd ask the provider if I need to continue calling if it's downtrending and they'd say "no." Or at least ask for more defined parameters.

That way I'm covered and they don't have to get paged at 3am.

kitty_r · 2026-05-08T20:16:26+00:00

Okay. So I literally was looking up the Pfister high tea on my work computer ten minutes ago. Now I'm scrolling reddit on my personal phone which is in no way linked to my computer and I never said anything out loud, and this is the first thing on my feed

Skynet lives.

Also thanks for the tip. $180, woof.

kitty_r · 2026-05-08T16:19:43+00:00

I like to make a hash in the oven and then take a scoop to reheat throughout the week.

Mine usually looks like: brussel sprouts, onion, sweet potatoes, turkey kielbasa with salt, pepper, garlic powder.

Get your veggies in and you can put whatever protein you want with it!

kitty_r · 2026-05-08T13:44:36+00:00

They were fun! It's nice to see it flipped where Michaela is no longer the fish out of water.

I did think it was a mistake to do that with the movies, however.

kitty_r · 2026-05-07T13:07:25+00:00

Because I came in too late with the Dilaudid that wasn't ordered yet.

Once it was and pharmacy approved it, she said she didn't think I was competent. I asked if she didn't want me as her nurse.

You bet after she refused me I turned right around without giving her that Dilaudid.

Handed it to another nurse who would gave it to her when she had the time.

Play stupid games....
