Dave's Guitars in La Crosse, Wisconson

So, Joe bought an amp all the way in Wisconson! Today we decided, since it's a long weekend, that we would road tip up there to pick it up, and of course we took Mal! It was a 4 1/2 hour drive up there, then we hung out at the store for about 45 minutes. Mal really wanted to try his hands out on one of their many custom guitars, but everything there was so pricey that even Joe didn't try to play one. All fear the you-break-it-you-buy-it rule. However there wasn't a total lack of photo ops for us there.

Then we decided to walk around historic downtown La Crosse. However we got there too late to go into any of the shops. :(. But it was beautiful none the less.

Not to mention the scenery! Mal was amazed by the Mississippi river and loved watching all the people in boats. We got to see a river boat, several fishers, a few speed boats, and even saw a guy eat shit water skiing. It made us giggle a little. :)

He's Here!

So, I got home from work and went to work on a project when Wally started barking. Odd. Wally isn't really a barker. Someone must be at the door.


Yes, indeed, Mal has arrived in Iowa after a long journey from Texas by way of the east coast. I know, we're confused to. We thought we'd make his first few days easy, so he's just been lounging around the house and watching us get ready for the move. He seems a little upset that we don't play WoW or have a wii, but we have givin him full access to the interwebs and our Xbox 360, and we also insured him that after the move he'll be able to play Rock Band and DDR, too.
He doesn't know about Chuck, our rabbit, yet, but we're trying to keep him in the dark on that one. He and Wally however have become buddies.
