My First Time |
|
Hello Menomonie. I know two things about you: 1) You are home to my brother-in-law and 2) You are home to the University of Wisconsin-Stout. I can't make a judgment about you based on that little information so I had to come up and see you for myself. (To be truthful though, the only reason I even cared to come see you is because my brother-in-law is the offensive line coach for Stout.) You didn't give me the friendliest greeting with the all-day rain, cloudiness and haziness. But as I looked past your temporary appearance and focused on your inner beauty. I saw a quaint business district and some beautiful craftsman style homes. You had a a couple dozen dedicated fans who stood and/or sat through the endless rain during the Blue Devils game as they took on (and ultimately succumbed to) University of Wisconsin-Stevens Point for their last home game of the season. But I would say your best attribute is that you surround Lake Menomin, which provides a beautiful view of Mother Nature for your 16,000 residents and numerous visitors even on the haziest of days. Next year though, we'll come to a September game to try to catch you at your prime.
