It’s fun little tradition we enjoy whenever we are in Milwaukee for Independence Day! The annual celebration and neighborhood parade (with fewer spectators than marchers) in the Village of Fox Point:

Papa has restored an old “firetruck” that was a crumbling relic in one of the old factories acquired by Jason Industries in its heyday, and the girls enjoy riding it during our summertime visits.

Fox Point is where Karen spent her high school years, and is the original family home in Milwaukee. Even though Nana & Papa now live in River Hills, we always return to this fun community event.
