Wiggles, Squiggles, & Giggles

Hosts: Sharon Stark & Peter Livingston





Update #2 (May 18, 2016)

  • Wear a funny hat.
  • Bring your favorite toy (a jar of bubbles to blow, jump rope, basketball, etc)

Put on a funny hat (best one gets a prize), and meet a bit west of Madison. After gassing up and getting instructions (giggles permitted), we'll wiggle our cars around fun curves on the way to Spring Green. Some of you may remember this spirited and squiggle-y route from a previous Sharon/Peter extravaganza. We'll stop at Culvers and then wind our way north. It's back to Spring Green for lunch at RumbleSeats, the rock-and-roll drive-in. Bring your favorite toy so we can giggle while we eat. After that, we'll head southwest to Mount Horeb to taste some made-on-the-spot, artisan chocolate (you'll love it). It's now mid-afternoon, and time to get ready for happy hour. So we'll stop for a spot of beer. A few giggles later, we'll all be squirrelly enough for a real happy hour and food at Arthur's, a local supper club near Spring Green. Weather permitting - and if you're interested - you can stargaze at our house. By 9:00, you'll be able to see Jupiter, Saturn, Mars, a first-quarter moon and deep-sky squiggles outside our solar system.

8:30 gathering, Kwik Trip, 7583 West Mineral Point Road, Middleton, 3 miles west of Hwys. 12 & 14 on Madison's west side
