Jefferson

We are having a blast in yet another new venue - Jefferson WI. We're pretty close to home, only an hour's drive to the hotel and another 15 minutes to the theater. This venue went all out decorating the lobby with all sorts of Ice fishing/up nort' type decorations. My favorite is the bottle fish - there are several different types of bottle fish! They even had an ice shanty set up in the lobby. Before the show they treated us to dinner at their brat fry - yummy. They also had several sponsors that didn't make it into the program, so they acknowleged them on big sign posts on either side of the stage and smaller sign posts scattered around the lobby. It was a lot of fun.

I call this picture "Of Lights and Men"
It's a huge space - 996 seats. There are some that weren't sold because they were obstructed by the sponsor signs, but otherwise it was a sell-out!














After the show we were all invited to a party at the beautiful home of the Sandy and Mike, the head of the theater and her husband (head of the school district) It was a great party with AMAZING food.











We all enjoyed the bacon-cheese dip baked in a loaf of bread, the artichoke dip and of course what Guys On Ice party would be complete without fish-shaped cookies! There were also mittens and snow-flakes but we were partial to the fish! Paul's enjoyment of the Brandy Slush garnered him a new nick-name... Slushy and he was a big hit with our hosts and the other party guests. They even packed him a doggy bag (fishy bag?) of cookies for the road!
