Another Fun Day in B-Town

 Doug and Cam were up early to play nine holes at Cascades before lunch.  They had fun even if their scores were a little higher than in the summer.  Brett and I used the time they were gone to fix his Key Bank app, cut his hair and get out his Halloween decorations.  By the time the guys got back we were ready for a game of Ticket to Ride Italy which Cameron won easily.  Brett left for work shortly afterward.  Meg then arrived just after her shift at Bell Trace ended.  Cam had picked Moe's for lunch and we had a Homewrecker burrito waiting for her.  She had time to finish some homework while Doug and Cam watched the Bears defeat the Panthers.

As soon as the game ended we headed straight for Brown County State Park.  We were afraid that rain would cancel our plans to hike, but it ended up being a wonderful afternoon for it.  We pulled up to our traditional hiking spot and were surprised to see how incredibly packed it was.  Thankfully, Meg and Nick had been there several times in the past few months and Meg could lead us to another less traveled path that we ended up liking a lot better.  It was definitely more challenging than our trek through Chain of Lakes in August, but we enjoyed it just the same.  Cam and I made several references to the movie, The Blair Witch Project, while on our hike as it was fresh in our minds.  We even found a bundle of sticks and a pile of rocks that were a little eerie looking.  In the end it took us about an hour and a half to make the three mile hike.  It was tiring but worth it to see all of the beautiful views.   

We were wiped out after our trip so we headed back to Brett's to watch Monsters Inc and play Ticket to Ride before Meg and Doug went to 9 p.m. mass.  While they were gone Cam and I enjoyed several episodes of Impractical Jokers and games on the Wii.  Doug arrived just before Brett with breadsticks for all.  He had thoroughly enjoyed mass, especially since Father Daniel referrenced Monty Python's Life of Brian during the service. We played a couple of rounds of the original Ticket to Ride before starting the movie Scream.  We were too tired to finish it, but enjoyed introducing it to Cameron.
