Dear Milwaukee

474 Upvotes

I am a born-and-raised Nebraskan who recently visited your fine city for four days with my fiancé, who lived there for 30 years.

I. Am. In. Love.

From the way your buses operate, to that absolutely funky Brady Street intersection on the East Side (which my fiancé quizzed me on, and which I think I kinda understand now 😂), to the beautiful Milwaukee River, the stunning views, and the proximity to Lake Michigan, I am in love with all of it.

This trip was a trial run. I wanted to see whether I could picture myself living there with my fiancé.

And yeah. I can. ❤️

There’s something about your city that just clicked for me. I came to visit, but I’m going home already thinking about the next chapter. I think it’s time to start getting the ball rolling on bringing ourselves and our three cats up there and making Milwaukee our home.

I don’t know exactly when it’ll happen, or how long it’ll take to get everything in place. But I know one thing for certain:

I can’t wait to come back.

Whether it’s for another visit or because we’re finally home for good, I’ll be counting down the days until we meet again.

Until then, Milwaukee, take care of yourself.

And, of course…

GO BREWERS! ⚾💙💛

We choose to be happy.

279 Upvotes

It's been a joy to be around town as the MKE Brewers compete in the World Series. People are collectively excited and it shows in how we are interacting: kindness, smiles. I was very moved last night when the TV coverage would cut to Am Fam Field -- sold out and joyous, all watching a singular event together. Here's to Milwaukee, and to humanity. Let's choose to be happy more often. It's a better way to live.

Rant❗⚡💥 What is it with people parking right behind stop signs when the streets are empty?

14 Upvotes

I was driving through a neighborhood today, and there was a car parked right behind the stop sign, and I waited for what felt like 10 minutes before realizing it was parked. Like there was literally the entire street to park at, but no, they just had to park right behind the stop sign.

Bar Rental for Birthday?

5 Upvotes

Might be a long shot, but does anyone know if any bars in the city will let you rent it out for the evening for a birthday party? I’ll also take any recommendations for smaller event spaces in the city, thinking like 30 people at most.

I’d love to hear anyone’s insight or experience, and if anyone has other reccommendations :)

I saw this on the back of a white box truck on my way to campus and it reminded me a lot of the “proud boys”. Does anybody recognize this?
