Survived Another One

Well, Val and I survived another "Oktoberfest" in La Crosse, Wisconsin, our 14th. Besides the fest, we always go dancing at a little place called Nutbush City Limits, not to far from Renee's (Val's sister)place. If you have never been to a real Oktoberfest I suggest checking this one out. Only bad thing is trying to get a room might be hard. Most the hotels are booked a year and sometimes two years out. The parade alone attracts 100,000 people. Besides the parade, one of the highlights of the festivities is the tapping of the "golden keg" which takes place on the first day of the fest at 10:00 a.m.. Hey, it's noon somewhere....
