A bar near Cindy Wohlberg’s house in Delevan, Wi.

Stardate – Unknown

in the time continuum during the winter around 2012 and 2013. Perhaps Cindy can better narrow down the year.

Kay was visiting Cindy when I received a phone call inviting me to meet them at a bar down the street from Cindy’s.

It was late afternoon and a snow storm was in full swing.  Significant drifting of snow on the roads was a real hazard.

A reasonable person would not have risked the 40 mile plus journey with roads nearly impassable.

I went anyway

The evening was filled with laughter, a mix of reminiscing our past and current affairs, but the one common thread all night was Kay relentlessly bantered me with the term “you are full of $#*T”.

Kay had that unique gift of telling someone to go to hell and we would look forward to the trip!

The bantering was part of her and

I know all of you can appreciate that.

It was a fun filled evening eliciting past stories till the bar closed

 I quit drinking around 11:30, (I had 40 miles to drive) but Cindy and Kay (1/4 mile to drive) continued to drink until the bartender kicked them out at closing. (imagine that!).

One of the highlighted stories that evening was a Lake Minnetonka event that left Cindy driving around for a month in her company car with a jock strap attached to her front license plate. Inserted into the jock strap were two oranges.

It was quite a full package!

 Kay was quite a prankster!

Cindy was unaware that Kay and George had pranked her car during the party. Cindy was pulling up to NAPA stores and dealers with her decorated license plate.  

Many of Cindy’s customers most certainly took notice but wisely remained silent because they really didn’t want to ask Cindy why she was driving around town with the abundantly loaded plate.

30 years later and the stories are just as funny as they were back then.

More to come.
