The first weekend of our new gastroenterology course was a
prime opportunity to sneak home for a mini vacation.
I made sure I had extra time in the airport
this time around and was flying through Cleveland back to Green Bay.
After a minor delay, I was running out of the
airport to find Haus’ Burb in the passenger pick up ready to take me to a fine
local establishment to meet Lyssa, Liz, Kate, Marc and the boys.
Luckily everyone was in the mood for dancing
and we were sore the next morning from the night of busting many wild moves on
the floor.

Saturday morning, Lyssa and I drove up to Joel’s camp to
meet my parents and help my dad get some things ready for the up and coming
hunting season.
Saturday night we
migrated down to Uncle Johns to catch up with everyone after dinner and
exchange stories and dance like Taylor Swift.
Lyssa and I got on a role telling stories from our college days and some
of the adventures we got into with Windpants.
I was laughing so hard!
We also
had Dad and big Whitey consider volunteering to be a standardized patient for a
little extra cash – hahah!

Sunday morning I went for a walk down the road at Bucks
cabin to take in the rustic scenery and the farmland. There were a lot of great photo opportunities
to capture the remaining fall foliage and harvested fields. Later that morning, we took a trip to the
public land to help Curty put up a few deer stands in preparation for opening
day and he showed us a few tricks to tracking down the big bucks. Lyssa was navigating with the GPS and
carrying a part of the climber. It as a
nice little hike back into the woods followed by a stop at the water falls on
our way out. We made it there just in
time to take pictures and run back to the car before the downpour of rain! Perfect timing!

Monday afternoon it was down to Milwaukee for a late night
flight through Newark and to Pittsburgh.
I’m sure glad that I was able to make the trip back to visit and catch
up with everyone before the hustle of the Holidays!
I never turn town a weekend trip to
Wisconsin!
