July 30th, I missed a day of boating (well, it was actually a rainy, threatening day so I really didn't miss it) and got up at the ungodly hour of 4 AM. (I had to figure out how to set the alarm clock, something I'd forgotten in the three years I've been retired. Just one of those little obstacles you have to overcome when you're retired, but I can learn to live with it.)
Went with Kip and Susie and picked up Paul in Kenosha, and drove to Green Bay, arriving at Lambeau Field, Home of the Green Bay Packers, in the rain about 9 AM for their annual Shareholders and Guests Meeting, done at this date to coincide with the beginning of preseason camp at nearby St. Norbert College in case anyone wants to get in on that action as well.
Kip had to get tickets before we were allowed to go in. The Packers have done a great job in building what they call the Atrium onto the outside of Lambeau. Inside there are bars (especially Curly's Pub, named after Curly Lambeau) and several souvenir places. One other time I was there, they were setting up for a private party. This way, they are able to get year-long use out of the field.
Someone really had a good idea for this one.
Next, the Meeting. --RoadDog
RoadDog's RoadLog Blog: Being my travels down those great two lane highways of this nation as well as news I learn about them from media sources. Since I'm also very interested in historic preservation, there will be a lot of that as well.
The Shamrock Court Motel in Sullivan, Missouri. It can be yours for $125,000. Lots of possibilities. Actually, now you're too late. Missouri's Roamin' Rich bought it.
