Eeeeyup! That's what ya' do up here afore the cold and winter sets in...

I'm surprised CLK hasn't chartered a tour bus and already gotten himself "booked" into the local "Hotel Graybar" - people have been getting kicked out of their rooms this past week for all the incoming "previous bookings" that have started showing up since last week Thursday. Even when the President(s) have been in town, Oktorfest is more of a logistical nightmare than even he is. And it's, at least, 2-3 days straight. Keep in mind...we have 3 separate Post-HS campuses in town...UW-La Crosse, Viterbo University and Western Wisconsin Technical College. Then you have the "townies" and the regular local "flavor" and finally, everyone else that shows up for the parade...during which there are over 4x's the usual population along the route...over 200,000+!!!

I wouldn't mind having a piece of the PortaPotty Consession, just none of THAT work!!

Let's just say I'm happy I'm leaving for the Winneconne/Oshkosh area right afterwards and I'm taking the fun Benz with me...
