Summer Time!!!!

the beautiful garden store by my house that i go to when i need an instant jolt of happiness!  i asked if it was byo hammock, but they just laughed.  I was serious though.

picture from one of the stops on our all night bike ride with the Midnight Marauders.  It was a really cool new installation in the park commissioned by Chicago power and electric.  It stays on all night, yet a heavy rainstorm can wipe out a neighborhood for a week!  Good use of resources?  I think not! 
 We went on a river boat brewery tour in Millwaukee.  Four breweries with great beer!  Plus that city is pretty awesome too!
Morgan and I not paying attention to who is taking the pic!

 The sunset over the Millwaukee Art Museum.  One of my favorite buildings in the region!
Kim showing off her vocals for the crowd on the Rutter bar crawl!  That night was a total blast!

I got to tour a handmade wallcovering factory.  It was a ton of fun.  I wanted to play with all the fun paint and papers!

a super cool macine call a ruminizer!  it puts a special finish on the paper using a matalic paint.  no rum included.

I went to a party for an industry event at the coolest place in Chicago, Salvage One.  It's an architectural salvage warehouse.  I'm going to beg them for a job.  No joke. BEG!
There is a really cool festival put on by Fat Tire Brewery.  It's all about bikes!  They even give a few away. There are all kinds of funky bikes you can ride.  It was hot but so much fun!


A bunch of my KSU friends went down to the Ozarks last weekend to catch up and hang out on the water.  It was a much needed break.  I brought two girl friends from Chicago with.  They were not disapointed by the Ozark lifestyle!  Like my hat??!!  I got it in China Town for $3!

Learning

We've started teaching the babies to drink water.  Stripe has pretty much weaned them and only lets them suck a few minutes a couple of times a day.  I've tried putting the water bowl in with them but they never seemed interested.  So I've started making their food a little dryer and that's done the trick.  Here's a pic of the first time. 


Love, Sher
