Fun & Frozen - Boundary Waters

It was really just a phenomenal weekend out on these frozen lakes, pulling sleds and enjoying the crisp winter, We found camp easily enough. Dug out our camp site and the metal fire pits. While some enjoyed setting up camp, others tromped along the shore for wood.

*Winter camping is not for the feint of heart, or those who lack the inner heat and proper gear to brave it. Prepare for the worst and hope that you have it like this!!!

logo for Iron Works Cafe -Goodman Community Center Madison WI

This has got to be the coolest place in Madison to eat. The building is an old warehouse that is completely refurbished. Inside are numerous spaces that can be rented. It looked like some reception was going on in the front room and also the Hot Dish hoedown was in full effect.

Iron Works Cafe serves two meals for dinner: Veggie or Meat dish. You get your choice of soda or coffee. Everything is one price. Kids run the joint. Not just normal kids. These kids have had more than challenging life's and this cafe is filling them with respectful work. Iron Works Cafe caters too! The food was fantastic. I have no idea what I was eating. It was a beef dish with yams and other tasty tidbits. I had coffee and shared a brownie with ice cream and caramel.

I am sure you can find out more about this space at www.goodmancenter.org.
