Favorite place to eat: Charlie's Drive-In, Hortonville. They are well known across the area for their cheeseburgers and homemade root beer. My favorite item is their BBQ sandwich which is similar to a sloppy joe.
Favorite Fox Cities attraction or event: Pumpkin picking at Cuff Farms. I enjoy the scenic wagon ride through the fields where you can gather pumpkins of all shapes and sizes. There are lots of fun areas for the kids to play and an antique truck that is a great photo opp.
Headshot location: Mile of Music mural. I love hearing original music from the eclectic array of up and coming artists that comprise Mile of Music. It's fun to rub elbows with bands as they join the audience to watch their fellow musicians perform.
