Saturday night, we went to The Safe House, a spy-themed restaurant in Milwaukee. Good BBQ ribs. We enjoyed New Glarus Spotted Cow draft beer while we waited for our table.
Sunday, we attended the Packers vs. Eagles game at Lambeau Field in Green Bay. The Packers won 16-13 in a sloppy, poorly-officiated game.

Weekend highs and lows ---
Highs
1. First time at Lambeau, the only college game day atmosphere in the NFL
2. All travel, accomodations, meals, companionship, and events went off as planned, lots of fun. Thanks Bill and Nancy.
3. Lots of Eagles fans at Lambeau - we travel well.
4. Manka plays Guitar Hero
5. Uncovering the entrance password to SafeHouse (I am looking for a safe house...)
6. Honoring the Medal of Honor heros in person at Lambeau complete with Air Force flyover.
Lows
1. Eagles cut Jeremey Bloom, an awesome athlete who handles pressure and catches punts, then instead field two different guys who have never caught an NFL punt - and guess what -- they still haven't caught one.
2. Lambeau public address system insisting all people evacuate the stadium because of an emergency. Over and over. Caused quite the concern level. Then after a few minutes of this, coming on and saying nevermind, then not explaining what happened. Maybe it is just me, but I would fire several people over that. Today.
3. High school cheerleaders at an NFL game - just no explaining that -- clueless.
4. Green Bay names the highway into their stadium after an opposing team's current head coach - not well thought out there.
5. Eagles losing a game they certainly should have won.
All in all, a great weekend.
Observations
1. Star studded (literally) wait staff at the Safe House!
2. Guitar hero is harder than it looks!
3. Bill and Nancy are great hosts!
4. Packer fans are polite; and so were the visiting Eagle fans!
5. Eagles blow one!
Thanks to Mark for setting up another memorable weekend!
It was a fun weekend. We will have to do it again.
