      All the gas stations were closed at 11:40 coming back from the game on Saturday night. Saturday night of a Packer game and you're not open to catch the post-game traffic!
      But Rodgers leads the league in frumpy expressions and negative body language on the sideline, which makes him, like Josh Allen, a unique double threat.

        They must have had game tickets.

I have a water color painting of the front of Kaap's restaurant hanging on my living room wall down here. I used to eat there often as a kid with my family. Downtown doesn't look anything like that today.

              Mike, I remember at Christmas time it was a big deal to go downtown and check out the front store windows at Prange's. They were always pretty nice.

                My Mom worked at the Bellin Building for a while, and if I took the bus Downtown on her lunch break, I'd get taken to Kaap's for lunch and a Mickey Mouse sundae.

                  OMG, what a trip down memory lane! Thanks! When my family would go there we'd sing songs and the waitresses - who were all older than God - got a kick out of us. I don't know if the other patrons did tho! I gotta show this pic to my hubby later on! BTW, if you go to W. De Pere and check out that pizza place called Gallagher's you'll find a couple of those booths and other paraphenalia from Kaap's in there! Unfortunately if memory serves they painted the booths a light green.

                        Wait, you're two hours north of GB or GB is two hours north of you? How far is that from Kiel?

                            Never mind. My mom's best friend lived in New Holstein which is the next town over from the big city of Kiel. The thought did inspire me to get on Google maps and look at a street view of the old house. How they raised nine daughters there (one bathroom and the upstairs always under construction), I will never know.

                              My first residence as a married guy was a little house we rented in Kiel. I rented it from the family that owned the corner bowling alley.
