The muskies started migrating up to the Wingra dam a few days ago and so we started our day at the dam. We saw about 15 big ones today. Jevin and I even saw a big one jump! We also got to talk to a family portaging the dam with a canoe and chat with a fisherman as he reeled in a nice sunfish.
After playing outside, we took in a fun folk music performance. Enavi joined up with a new friend and had a blast dancing then they did an unexpected encore in which we all got to do a fun circle dance.
After the dancing we grabbed lunch across the street from where Jen and I lived when we first came to Madison and then swung over to the Wunk Sheek Spring Pow-Wow for the Grand Entry. The music, dancing and regalia were very nice and the kids had a good time even as they were starting to tire out. They asked us not to photograph & video the Grand Entry which has a huge parade of dancers in full regalia but we still managed to get a few clips of songs and dancing.
After a trip through the local garden center we decided to skip the Wisconsin Gourd Festival and the Mustard Museum's grand opening in Middleton to play at home.
After some homemade soy-cheese pizza and snuggling with mom it was off to bed. The kids were out cold as soon as their heads hit the pillows.
