Chad, what town was your dad from?

Milwaukee. We lived there a while and in the suburbs.

Have you ever been to the Milwaukee Public Museum? I love that place! Also the Museum of Modern Art.

I've been to Irish Fest there about a million times.

Have never been to Wisconsin, but I like all kinds of cheese.

Right now I wish I had some mascarpone cheese mixed with Italian herbs and roasted pine nuts, a loaf of a crusty bread to spread it on, and a bottle of wine to drink with it.

So good.

Yes, grandmother took me and my brother to the museums all the time. We loved it.

I have not been to the Irish fest but I would like to go.

Maybe you will remember this, maybe not... But one of my favorite displays was the Wild West, with Native Americans on horses thundering across the Plains... And there was a rattlesnake at the front of the display, and if you pressed the button on the edge of the display its tail would rattle!

One of my other favorite displays was the room with the domed ceiling that had paintings of geese and other large migratory birds, and the tape would play over and over of different bird calls.

I think I will go visit the Milwaukee Public Museum next weekend...

I do remember that display. My grandmother hated snakes so we would worn her before we got to the display.

Have fun at the museum!
