When we made plans to visit our friends Tom and Lynne in Mequon (Milwaukee area) we found that our trip coincided with Lynne’s plans to take her granddaughters to the American Idol concert scheduled for Sept. 11th. Being fans of American Idol we could not pass up the chance to accompany them since we had the chance. Lynne and Tom are members of the Wisconsin Club, an old club – since the turn of the 20th century – in downtown Milwaukee. The club serves dinner and has limo service to events and Lynne and Tom invited us to come along. The dinner was great, the club building was an amazing old mansion in perfectly preserved condition, and the concert was lots of fun.
