Titleman...

I was in Green Bay, Wisconsin awaiting the departure of United 5960 on Friday.  It was a beautiful day to be in Green Bay, and probably the most perfect time of the year to be there.  The sun was shining brightly and the sky was full of puffy, white clouds. It was in the 70s.  That part of the country is unbelievably flat.  There is absolutely no undulation in the topography.  But it is very green this time of the year, bright green to be exact. 

I was only there two nights, Wednesday and Thursday, and I enjoyed Green Bay, at least what I saw of it.  I did not get to see very much of the city, actually there isn’t a lot to see.  Green Bay is not a very large town, but I did go to the hallowed ground of Lambeau Field, home of the legendary Green Bay Packers, and the Titletown Brewery, home of legendary beer, according to the menu. 

Being more of a beer fan than a football fan, the brewery was the highlight of the trip.  I didn’t tell anyone my true feelings about beer versus football.  Here in Green Bay people worship football – it is almost a religion, much as beer is to me.  I also didn’t tell people here that they talk funny.

And that is all I have to say about that…
