Happy Easter! We had family to Magic Pines and had a 90 Easter Egg Hunt outside looking for treats! It seems that only Mazie got the memo on dressing in brighter colors. 🐰

My friend @Bricker is lighting up his blog timeline with a bunch of new and old blog posts. Worth adding to your feed reader or timeline of choice. 🔥

I’ve been a fan of the IndieWeb community for years, but finally decided I should get a bit more active. I created my profile on the IndieWeb wiki, started as a backer, and signed up to host the next available IndieWeb Blog Carnival in April 2025.

We made a last minute final stop at the Milwaukee Domes before we left town. The tropical and desert domes were relaxing and pretty to experience.

We had a great time escaping the “Invasion” room at 60 to Escape! The room was fun, surprising, and appropriately challenging. One of the best rooms we’ve done! Finished with 5m 37s remaining.

See list of escape rooms.

The Ube Toast Crunch Oatmeal at Uncle Wolfie’s Breakfast Tavern is delicious and strikingly purple!

While waiting for our table at Uncle Wolfie’s Mazie found these stairs and got some exercise. Then Tyler caught wind and a race was required.

Return visit to Discourse Coffee this morning for a Moonwater (espresso, milk, honey, cinnamon, tellicherry black pepper, and applewood smoked sea salt). Yum. ☕️

I like this sculpture in combination with the buildings in downtown Milwaukee.

The barista “workbench” at Discourse Coffee has an incredibly broad array of mixologist components. 🧑‍🔬☕️

Looking good this morning Milwaukee!

We watched Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves tonight. Good story and fun D&D vibes.
