Wednesday, August 1 ~ New Crew Member!

Dave and I enjoyed a beautiful walk across the Mississippi River into downtown LaCrosse this morning where we had a fantastic breakfast at Fayze's . . .if you ever get to LaCrosse, this is a great place for breakfast or lunch.

At 11:30, we were VERY happy to see Jacqui back on the boat!  After finishing dance class last night, she packed her bags and hit the road first thing this morning ... we're so happy to have our family together once again :)

After running errands to Walmart, and our favorite grocery store in LaCrosse (People's Food Co-op; downtown), we treated ourselves to a yummy ice cream treat at the Pearl (another must in LaCrosse)!

Once groceries were put away, we took a trip over to UW-LaCrosse, where Krystina goes to college, and got a peek at her new pad that she'll be calling home beginning this fall.  A duplex with four other girlfriends just two blocks from campus!  Jacqui and Krystina tested out the new chair donated from Grandma G . . . "thanks, G!"

Turns out two of Krystina's girlfriends were staying in the duplex for the summer, so they came and hung out on the river for a while.

Krystina and Amanda going out to jump some waves on "Sydney" :)

Tony and Paige go to meet up with the girls on the river.

After some fun on the river, we ended our evening at one of our favorite dinner spots; "Big Al's"!
