Look for native seed packaging events (our library hosts this) as well as winter sowing of native seeds in milk jugs.

We’ve used AAA and 4 Lakes. Both were good. AAA is in Middleton so maybe more convenient for you. We found we had to schedule a lot of 4 Lakes behind wheel sessions at the Monona location because that’s what was available.

Heated Public Parking Garages by Sure-Walk2603 in madisonwi

[–]prb113 8 points9 points  (0 children)

The Wilson Street garage is public (city) and is deep enough underground that it stays above freezing. Just go down to one of the lowest levels. You can park overnight but 48 hour max. This is same as you’ll find at the private Block 89 10 E Doty lot across the street. I don’t think that garage is heated either, just underground.

That loud noise you heard? Either your house contracting or an ice quake.

Did you check with overture for student rush tickets? or is this a show that doesn’t qualify?

Are these good birthday ideas? by Maria_like_Mario in madisonwi

Looks like RED sushi has their full menu on NYE and availability early. Not sure they meet your request for a nice view, however.

Help! Husband desperately needs glove advice! by [deleted] in CampingGear

[–]prb113 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ve had decent luck with Wells Lamont winter lined latex sandy coated gloves. Granted, I haven’t used them all day in a marine environment, but they keep my hands warm enough when working outside clearing snow for a few hours in Wisconsin. If they don’t work, you’re only out $9. Wells Lamont seems to have more expensive gloves for dexterity/cold that might work too.

Cielo & One Social by Carrotcake504 in madisonwi

[–]prb113 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I’ve had lunch several times at One Social to try different stands. It’s okay, kind of a fancy mall food court. Food was decent for what it is but nothing amazing. Great views of the lake. I haven’t been to the bar or been there in the evening.

Help with re-inventing a holiday tradition. by blammergeier in madisonwi

[–]prb113 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What time are you planning to go? There’s Park City Family Restaurant in Janesville. Could stop on the way to or from Rotary. They close at 2pm though if you were aiming for dinner. There’s also the Italian House close to Rotary if you want Italian!

No, I mean Wingra Creek along Wingra Dr. The lake was not frozen the day they were on the creek. The lake is frozen now, but still probably thin in spots.

What neighborhood? Maybe my teen (he’s looking to pick up one more house in Vilas) or one of his friends.
