Spring in Wisconsin
...means only 3 more months until the Packers play again.....

...means the grill will only get snowed on three more times....

...means ice fishing is going to be rough for a few months....

...means you can unbutton the top button on your flannel shirt...


add your own.....

1. If and when it ever gets here, I'll let you know
I can't believe I'm moving from one frigid wasteland to another (Cleveland)...I've clearly gone mad. :silly:

:D

5. I suppose that's true of 90/94 north
but things have been torn up in Milwaukee because of the Marquette Interchange construction for what already seems like forever

7. They just tore up East Washington Ave in Madison (again!)
Apparently they wanted to add more parking space on the East Side, 'cuz that's what they got now -- a 2 mile long parking lot...

8. Please tell me
they didn't close off the exit from 90/94 to Washington Ave (Hwy 151)....

My wife goes to conferences (usually held at one of the hotels right off of the interstate and Hwy 151) about once a month and if that exit is blocked, it makes it a nightmare....have to use Hwy 51 and worm back around....

10. Last I saw the exit was still open
But 151 was torn up in front of East Town Mall almost all the way to Highway 30. If she's going to a hotel right across from East Town, it might not be be too bad, but going uptown from there will take a LONG time anytime during the day (even on weekends so far).

13. You can put your ice scraper & snow brush in the trunk
but don't leave it in the garage, or you'll need it, for sure. :)
