The Mad Red Motherf**ker World Tour.
-
Well, It's been a bit. Time for an update…..
A couple of weeks ago, my daughter's school closed up, due to a few kids catching the 'rona. Thankfully, it would seem she wasn't in close enough proximity of them, to be one of them. Virtual learning was the rule, until they reopened earlier this week. To be on the safe side, I've kept close to home. But, today, I needed to get out. Having some free time, I took the Mad Red on a little tour of my home town.....
I dropped in on the local men's mercantile that carries a number of the brands we are familiar with. They don't carry IH, yet. But, from my conversation with the owner, that may change, soon. Fingers crossed.....
I wandered past a couple of companies that are synonymous with Milwaukee. In my line of work, I've had the opportunity to work in both facilities…..
For those who may remember the TV show Happy Days, Milwaukee was home to the Cunninghams, and Arthur Fonzerelli. Apparently, we have no one in real life worthy of being bronzed, so the Fonz got the honor. The statue is a fairly popular tourist attraction, though. As far as the Mad Red is concerned, the Fonz approves…..

This is fantastic:
Great update. I’ve said it before but it is a goal for me to visit your part of the US. I realise why the eastern and western seaboards are popular with the tourists but it seems to me that Pennsylvania, Michigan, Minnesota etc are the heartlands of your country. Being a north country boy, both in my native land and my adopted country, I see a lot of similarities between the English North, northern Norway and South Wales for that matter.

Time to catch up…..
Last update, I forgot one pic. About 3 years ago, I took part in the 666 double indigo tour. At the time I was working on a big project. It has since been named the Fiserv Forum. It is home to the local NBA team, the Milwaukee Bucks, as well as being a major concert venue.....
Last year, when I went to Gos Vegas for the 10th, @neph93 invited me to the pub to enjoy some footy(and, a few beers, as well). Since then, I've become a bit of a Liverpool fan, and have adopted them as my "home" team. I'm not much of a TV watcher. I don't have cable, satellite, or a streaming service. At home, I'm at the mercy of NBC, and their limited coverage. A week ago Sunday, they had a match against City, and felt it was time to find a spot to watch. I figured this place would do the trick…..
Not quite the English Breakfast I remember. But, it was pretty tasty, nonetheless…..
A little shot of the Mad Red, on the way out…..
Later that night, the fam came for strip…..
This past Friday was another daddy/daughter pizza night…..
And, a shot of me and the restaurant mascot just seemed appropriate…..
Today's mood…..

@scooter another great update… that breakfast looked pretty good, although not quite as down and dirty as ours on the Gosport High St. The pub looked a cut above The Fox too
No doubt, that High St. breakfast was better bang for the buck. To be honest, for me, a pub is a pub. They all have their particular charms. Keeping good company always helps, too. The Red Lion is a joint venture of two ownership groups. One of those owners is a couple of brothers, who happen to be from England. They have their own place, Three Lions Pub, as well. It's closer to home, and I'll be giving it a go, this Sunday, for the Leicester match. I'm cautiously optimistic for a little more authentic feel…

Thanks everyone! To be completely honest, this thing isn’t quite my style but the fact that it’s December makes me very much excited to wear it! My wife told me it was girly the second I put it on [emoji23] I’ll show her it’s manly!!!
By the end of my leg she will be missing it no doubt….

It does have some slight Michael Jackson Beat it vibes, but it looks cool to me.
