Springtime in Madison - May 15 - 16, 2010


Madison Highlights

Nick and I are back from a beautiful spring weekend in Madison! Saturday was a perfect day to be out and about and we took full advantage by getting an early start. Highlights include a trip to the Dane County Farmers' Market at the State Capital; a trillium purchased at the market to bring home; my favorite almond croissant from Cafe Soleil; a colorful assortment of brews, enjoyed outdoors at Capital Brewery's Beer Garden; vibrant spring flowers for sale; and a fun string quartet on State Street entertaining us with covers from Journey and other 80's favorites.


Capital Brewery's 'Supper Club' Lager

We were also introduced to Capital's new brew that could almost be our signature beer. I like how it's described as 'not bad' right on the box. Perhaps we will have to lobby for a 'Dinner Club' ale next year?

Thanks to Greg, JJ, and family for hosting us last minute!
