OK, so if you don't cross country ski and you don't snowmobile, why in the world would you go to Wisconsin in January?

Well, this might be one reason
But other than an obvious reason like seeing Neal, for Christmas I was given tickets to see Garrison Keillor's Prairie Home Late Show January 26th
So we went north.  We got to spend most of the day with Neal.  He even let his parents come along and we visited a furniture store. Neal liked the rocky horse, but old tightwad Grandpa didn't buy it for him
I think I might have been able to get a real horse for less. It was a REALLY nice furniture store.  But I thought $999 for this chair was a bit high
Of course, then I saw this dresser for $1670
I guess my style is more early American Yard Sale

For supper we went to the New Seoul Korean Restaurant
 It wasn't the West Union Cafe, but it was good.
Later in the evening Sue and Jim and I went to the show. We were up where you could see just about everything
One thing that was amazing was Garrison's not using notes or script for a 2 hour show
Fred Newman was equally amazing with his ability to do sound effects with just mouth sounds
We had a great time.

I used to make fun of the nose bleed section until I set up there for a performance and was amazed at how much we got to see that the other people only got glimpses of.
So glad you got to see Neal. He is growing so fast.
WOW that must have been some furniture store with those prices.
