*50 points if you know the reference. It’s likely something only my sister and I would get, but it’s dialogue from a tv show set in Milwaukee and has something to do with Tunisian camel jockeys. I am tempted to say this every time I hear the word Milwaukee.
Now, on with the blog. . .
Bob and I left Janesville at 9:00 am yesterday to make an 11:00 am meet-up with our next homeowner in Menominee Falls, Wisconsin. We will be caring for two cats through January 4th. The walkthrough of the home and pet care needs went well and then we were off to The Trade Hotel in downtown Milwaukee for the evening before beginning the house sit after the homeowner’s departure the next day.
Bob enrolled us in the Marriott Hotel program which allows for free stays once you incur so many points. We used points for a free night at The Trade Hotel which is right next to the arena where the Milwaukee Bucks basketball team plays when they are in town. The area around the arena is known as the Deer District in honor of the Bucks.
The hotel was new and lovely with a good fitness room and lots of dining options. We had fun exploring the hotel as well as some of the area.
