Blog name: Notes From The Burbs
Location: Waukesha, WI
About me: The lure of the big, little city by the lake brought me to Milwaukee more than seven years ago. I have since grown to love Milwaukee with every bone in my body and make sure that I tell everyone how great it is to live here -- especially when I travel.
