Dennis and Cindy have bird and squirrel feeders outside their back door. In the morning there was a squirrel there! They are so cute.
We left just before Cindy was going to work (Dennis had gone to work early, before we got up). This was after Richard hit the ball for the dog to retrieve for about half an hour. Poor Mykos was really worn out.
We went in to Millers Brewery and did the tour. It lasted about an hour and we got three glasses of beer each at the end, and it was free!! I even drank a glass of beer, it was a low carb beer that wasn't too bitter. It was a huge plant, and the tour was quite interesting.
This is in the caves under the brewery that (pre-refridgeration) they used to pack with ice to keep the beer chilled year round. The "Girl in the Moon" is one of their logos.
We headed down to the shore of Lake Michigan (which looks like the ocean because you can't see the other side), and had a custard sundae which was just like a really thick snowfreeze. Very tasty.
We left Milwaukee mid afternoon.
Here is Richard driving past Miller Park, with his newly acquired Miller hat. It was about 27 degrees C and we drove the hour and a half to Rockford with the top down, and got a little sunburnt again.
Dennis said that when it gets too hot with the top down we should crank up the air con. That seems a little crazy, but we might give it a go when we get further south.
