And Toilets

The stand out thing right now, as we sit here chewing tobacci on the porch, waiting for the bus to take us to the wedding ceremony, is the toilet roll holders here in Green Lake.

Vertical.

We need to adjust ours at home MoD.

Then we wouldn’t have to have the whole mullet -v- comb-over debate.

The second thing is the plastic accountability which is absolutely not happening here.

We found Sassafras, a cute little coffee shop just around the corner, so I could partake in my twice daily – always before midday – hot (not cold) singleshotsoylatte.

Debit cards are swiped, a receipt is printed and then you sign it.

All the food is put into plastic containers.

Even if eating in.

Plastic bags are everywhere.

NZ is ahead of the game here which of course makes me judgemental…..sigh…..

Anyho, back to Green Lake, population 1001 (if you please), the biggest natural inland lake in Wisconsin, depth approx 72m, covering about 30 square kilometres.

And it’s pretty.

The bridal party rented three homes on the lake, known by the guests as the compound, so the younguns could be together.

The groom had 9 attendants and the bride had 6, so there were quite a few of those young (gorgeous) things.

The view was spectacular from their lakeside window.

I know this because I was lucky enough to visit this morning so I could utilise the wedding hairdresser. She managed to turn my mop of hair into something socially acceptable.

Thank you Lori and Mitch.

You shouldn’t have 🥰

MoD’s stepmom Sylvia and his sister (from another mother-Sylvia to be precise), arrived last night and we got to spend some time with them on the porch this morning – along with the gorgeous Kaia. Soon to be another Mrs. P.

It’s been a good day so far.

But now we must board the bus, my first trip on the yellow Sesame Street school bus.

Yes that’s what I associate the yellow bus with.

My feet are already killing me. That ain’t gonna stop me wearing my wedding shoes. Those babies cost more than the wedding dress and absolutely deserve a second Big Day Out in the big wide world.

They will be dancing.

Like nobody is watching.
