Sunday, 1 September 2019: North East Winsconsin



Today would have been Aunt Footie's birthday.  She was my favorite great aunt.  No question she is in heaven smiling on us all today.

Mike, Mandi and Eli left today after a short visit.  We worked on a deadly jigsaw puzzle; yes, the same one we started when Tom and Joan were here. I'd been ready to throw it away (I've never done that before) but I am glad I left it up.  It gave Mandy and I an excuse to get a lot of chatting in.
Justin cooked steaks for dinner -- can't beat the tenderloins from Marchant's!
Jordan and the kids came over for breakfast of Justin’s famous French toast.  We were out of maple syrup so I made blueberry syrup that met our needs.  

Marsha and Randy were curious so they came over to look at the yard.  Guess they wanted to see what you get for a mere $30k.

The property across the street is for sale.  It has a cottage and a garage on 13 acres.  Kris is really interested in this property and since Mandy is a realtor … we got to go in a check it out.  Kris is really, really interested now.  

Before Mike and his family left to go back to Milwaukee, all the Miller's went to the Dyckesville bowl for curds and burgers.  Justin and I went to Frosty Tip after.  They close next week for the season.  This is Labor Day weekend — school starts here on Monday.









Gridiron news—Final 53 man roster came out for the Packers.
I am sticking with my names to watch — local guy, Jake Kumrow, 3rd round draft choice Jace Stoneberger out of TAMU, and 7th round pick and Ty Summers out of TCU.
Tim Boyle is the Packers back up QB.  Thankfully LaFleur sent Kizer packing.  He had his chance last year when Aaron Rogers was hurt and he fiddled away his chance.  This year it is all about Boyles should, we need him.
I was pleasantly surprised to see management stick with Mason Crosby.  I heard a girl refer to him as “Crossbar Crosby” — I sure hope that name doesn’t stick.

We will be ready for the season opener against the Bears on Thursday.
