Memorial Day

in Oshkosh, WI

Travel Stories: Oshkosh, WI

June 14, 2018

After a cool 3 hour drive from Chicago, we made it to Brian’s cousin’s house in Oshkosh, WI. It was Memorial Day weekend and technically our first anniversary. We decided to spend the weekend with Ashley (Brian’s cousin) and her husband Jeff. Practically newlyweds themselves, they just purchased their first home, where Brian and I hadn’t yet been.

We made it! Let's drink!

Upon arrival, we were greeted with enthusiasm and a plethora of drink options.

 After a tour of the house and some strong cocktails we turned our attention to this chest of Grandma’s.

 It was full of vintage clothes & accessories from Grandma’s life. She wore this blue dress to her daughter’s wedding.

 Some of the clothes had notes attached stating their significance.

 Lunch on the water, because you know, Wisconsin.  Sadly, my beautiful, new Sony digital camera got knocked off the table at this restaurant. It is not currently working. I don’t want to talk about it.

 We stopped at a greenhouse thinking it would have a variety of plants for great prices (because we’re from Chicago).
