We are hoping to travel on Monday, so need to know before Sun night (because that is our other option). But if it isn't looking like impacts until Tue then we may be okay. About 4 years ago or so we were at the IL's for Christmas and we got 18" of snow that shut down all interstates and the airport. Lots of family time that Christmas.
Will do! My Mom worked in town many years, and they go there for all their Dr appointments. My sister is there shopping today since it is the closest Target to her in our hometown.
you've said you are from Mason City? before (i think that's what you said)
I've said it, but I thought just once in an obscure football thread! Damn, people have good memories around here.
Yup, read it in some thread. Not sure where, I tend to not get into football too much.
Yeah, I also remembered that, but mainly because one of my friends at ISU was from MC...otherwise I'm not sure it would have registered.
I was talking to the barber as the kiddos were getting haircuts this morning, her son is not sure what he wants to do (he's in first year after HS), and her description of his interests/disinterests seemed like a good fit for my program at ISU (and he had thought about going to ISU, his sister goes there). So I was going to get her some information on the program. Clicked on one document, seriously....it's in f-ing comic sans...while I don't get the overall hate for it in every situation...for a college recruiting type flyer, it looks like it was done by a middle schooler.
squeaky WI cheese curds with a sample pack of New Glarus beer would be a popular exchange gift, don't you think?
ha, you should see the big disclaimer they have on their page about shipping the curds. Can't be outside of refrigeration for more than 24 hours.
No, no one would want that. To avoid the embarrassment of giving such a crappy exchange gift, you should just send it to me and I won't tell anyone what you did.
whoops, no on curds. Lose their squeak too fast. Have to do a mixture of a couple different kinds instead.
DH just can't win, can he?
My gift, on the other hand, will be a well-known WI wine with a couple kinds of fudge. What kind of fudge is popular? They have everything. I'm thinking maybe just the classic regular and salted caramel.
