Birthday season is done! During the two minutes I have between that and trying to assemble everything for Christmas, here is an overstuffed recap:
The first birthday of the season is Quinn's just before Thanksgiving. I was in Cleveland that week, but I did get to talk to him for a bit on the phone. We played twenty questions where he had to guess what I was looking at outside my hotel window. It was giant plastic birds, so it took a while.

House on the Rock
On the Sunday of Thanksgiving weekend
we arranged to meet with my brother and his baby at a crazy halfway
mark between Milwaukee and LaCrosse. We
decided to explore House on the Rock, which claims to be the most
visited tourist attraction in Wisconsin. You are forgiven if you live
outside of Wisconsin and have never heard of it. And I say "claims to
be" because it's hard to trust anything you see or hear there. Few
things are labeled, much is left up to interpretation, and all of it is
bizarre.
It's amazing. And weird. And amazingly weird. It's not often that I end up in a space where I am surprised around every corner, but we literally didn't know what to expect as we walked from room to room. Except for Santas. For Christmas they had 6000 Santas set up, tucked in every corner and on every shelf. It was a stunning amount of Santas.

Finishing Touch
I'm suffering the journal paradox at the moment. I have a lot to write about, but no time to write. I still need to say something about the violin convention in Cleveland, our trip to House on the Rock over Thanksgiving, and about the election. But those things take time.
So instead, here is a post about painting my Kitchen Aid! (Because that's easy, and right now I need something to be easy.)
