West Bend Octoberfest

On August 29th, Shawn & Melissa went to downtown West Bend's Octoberfest. We started off at 8am at the Strawberry Pancake Breakfast. It was okay at best. The sausage was pretty hard and the strawberries were so cold it made the hot pancakes really cold and soggy. Maybe it had something to do with another cold summer morning. We met up with our friends Kevin & Bridget Pankonin at the farmer's market down the street to pick up some fresh produce, flowers and fish. I love their vast selections. After the market shut down at 11am, it was time to get back to Octoberfest to what else?? Drink. While Melissa had Sprecher Root Beers the rest of the group had lots and lots of beer. After about four hours of sitting around Melissa had enough and was in desperate need of a nap but Shawn got one more beer out of it by rubbing her feet at the picnic table. I guess we both got something out of it.
