Madison: Around Madison, WI

Friday, November 19, 2021

This here is the last post from our rather lengthy Madison, Wisconsin summer trip. Mostly, I saw gardens, we ate food, and entertained the dogs (when they weren't entertaining themselves...)

They wrestled, like, all the time.

I got a serious Pittsburgh vibe from the neighborhood. Well, Pittsburgh mixed with frontyard gardens. It was great to take the dogs for a walk and see all the things everyone did with their frontyards. I've never lived in a neighborhood with such a density of frontyard produce!

Speaking of dog walks, we did a lot of that, as the condo didn't have a yard. But we also wanted to get these two ding dongs tired out, so we'd go to the large Warner Dog Park on a lagoon, or the smaller (but closer by) Odana School Dog Park. Off Leash Dog Parks are the most efficient way to get them tired. And a tired dog is a good dog...

One of the things we always do when in a city is take advantage of city food! Ramen from Umami, Paul's Pel'meni, and even some deliciously affordable Trader Joe's snacks on the balcony. Niiiiiiice.

It's a good thing the dog is such a good car traveler, because this involved quite a bit of driving!
