Watertown!
Jun. 14th, 2010 06:51 pmToday we went to the buffalo farm! It's right outside of Watertown. I went there for the first time in 2003 for an anniversary party/family reunion. I had a really, really good time and have really fond memories from there..it's one of my most favorite places. Jacque (my third cousin) and her husband own the farm. They take REALLY good care of themselves so it looks like they never age when I see them haha. Their farm is on a hill that's probably a glacial drumlin haha. They were happy to see us. Jacque's daughter Jody and Jody's kids came over and we had lunch. I swear EVERYONE directly related to Jacque is really tall. One of Jody's kids was like 6'2 or 6'3 and 15 years old! Jeeeez. Debbie (who wasn't there but was at the reunion and another time I went to the farm) was 6'1 when she was THIRTEEN. I think she stopped at 6'3. And they expect Jody's kids to pass Debbie in height cause they're taller than her when she was their age. That's just..INSANE. After lunch we went into town. I LOVE Watertown..I could totally live there. We first went to a thrift store..eh I don't really care for them. Then we went to a bookstore (that's more like it :P). I got a couple of books about Wisconsin. We also got really good ice cream from a homemade ice cream place. We sat by the river while they finished theirs. Then we drove back to the house, said goodbye and drove back to Ron's house. I think we're gonna go back later in the week though (yay!)
