Hey, I'm back! Sorry no blogs in a while, I seemed to have misplaced the cable that lets me download pictures from the camera to the laptop and I finally found a piece to replace it. They were going to make me special order the cable and I - well I don't have an address so I couldn't.
Anyway, todays blog comes from a coffee shop in Madison, WI. One of the greatest cities in America. The pictures, however, are of the farm in Platteville. What a great place! Ann and Roger invited us out for a little BBQ at the cabin. I'm telling you all, southwest Wisconsin is as close to heaven as I have ever been.
More on that later. We are in Madison today to visit Amanda's cousins. A few of them have moved into new homes recently so we came up for a tour and some pizza. On the way up, I realized how much I used to enjoy coming up to Madison to hang out, especially when Sticky was up here. We had some great times. The only bad part about this city is their sports teams, but keep on cheering Badger fans, who needs a National Title, when you have three Rose Bowls.
Back on the farm, we had some excellent burgers served up by Roger. Real, nonsteroidal, no chemical, just staright up organic, bail fed, old fashion beef raised by Ann. MMM Good.
Our walk around the farm was cut a bit short by the herd this time. I don't know if the momma cows were protecting their newborn calves, or if they were mad because we had just finished enjoying a (two) tasty burgers compliments of their next of kin, but we had to hop the gate quick. Not before I got some great snaps of the farm though.

Yes Ed, Madison is a very rockin' place. Sticky and I had so many good times in that EXCELLENT city! Did you get a chance to visit Suhs while you were there?

The farm looks great! I am sure the meat was excellent even though the thought of eating a hamburger makes me want to hurl! Good for you meat eaters though. Organic is always the way to go!

See you soon!
