Road Trip Trivia Final Results Congratulations – Drew & Fran Griffin Thank you all for playing along. We had so much fun thinking of questions and seeing how you were all doing along the way. We hope you had fun! I have put all the correct answers below in yellow. We are also including the [...]
Lunch: Ted’s Montana Grill, Atlanta, GA Review – “Is this heaven?” No, it’s just Ted’s onion rings. Acting on a tip from our awesome cousin Amy Fuller, we ventured into downtown Atlanta to try Ted’s. Owned by Ted Turner (because really, what in Atlanta isn’t?), the restaurant is themed western style, but classy western as [...]

Today was the last full day of our road trip, and we were feeling sad. But that didn’t last too long because Emily’s cousin Amy, who works at Zoo Atlanta, had free passes for us to see the zoo. We met her around 10 am and began exploring. Amy is an animal caretaker (not sure [...]
We got another great start to our road trip this morning as we again packed up our things and headed to breakfast. Once again we referred to the Road Food book the Griffins had purchased for us prior to leaving, and we found a little place called the Blue Plate Cafe where we had a [...]

Union Station was an old train [...]
Today was a day I have been looking forward to since I was about 15 years old — the day that I actually got to see the Field of Dreams. We packed the car yet again for our travels, and we said our sad goodbyes to the Toney family The first stop was indeed the [...]
Today we packed the car and spent the rest of the morning hanging out at the parents’ before we left for Madison. The car has more stuff in it on the way back than on the way up. Emily says this is because we are taking “those stupid baseball cards” home, but I think it [...]
Today we got up before the sun to get in our third and final round of golf. The foursome was the same as Friday: Patrick Toney, Erik Hietpas, Dad and myself. The teams were the same, and Erik and I were determined that we would win this one for the Gipper. We got off to [...]
Dinner: The Seasons, Appleton, WI Review — I am about to say something that will vastly conflict with some of my past Appleton food reviews. This was by far the best meal (Jean’s home cooking aside!) I have ever experienced in Appleton. Now, to be fair to Tom’s and Prime Quarter, this was the closest [...]

Today my mother had planned a wedding shower for a friend of the family, so it was made clear to us that we needed to evacuate the house immediately. I wish you could have seen the transformation of this house from a stamping-and-child nightmare to an immaculately clean house ready to serve lunch to 15 [...]
