Typing in the Car
Milwaukee has decided to leap ahead into the 21st century by wiring up a few of their city parks for WIFI. That gives those of us with laptops the chance to peck out emails and surf the web sitting at the tables in the park, or in my case, in my parked rental car here next to Cathedral Square park downtown.
The ease with which this can be done changes the equation….no longer is blogging something you do at your desk, and being able to blog on the fly opens up intriguing possibilities.
Milwaukee is a city of optimists, people who believe that things are looking up, and the flat accents and cheery dispositions are refreshing, coming from the cynical and uptight Northeast. Meeting people like Jeff Sherman and Peggy and Marty gave me a full helping of their charming and unforced hospitality. I look forward to writing my guide to Milwaukee, and to return here, but hopefully it won’t be 43 degrees and blustery on my next trip.

Not boring at all! But I have to make some project progress so can feel good about leaving on our trip early afternoon! I look forward to stopping back and reading more!It must mystify you that someone (like me) who has lived so near Milw my entire life has never explored it! For some reason when I travel I tend to think of things far away!I hope I find Milwaukee as beautiful as you did (and we’ll have 50’s and blustery!). So far we have no plan on what to see…which is very unlike me! I guess that’s winging it!Thanks for visiting Max – I will be back!
