         The life and times of Mark and Paula Persons


                        It's all about the beer
Saturday, June 16, 2012:  Mark and Paula stopped at the Pour House in Stoughton, Wisconsin, for a beverage and lunch.  Served that day was a local favorite.   It was Spotted Cow Beer from the New Glarus Brewing Company in southern Wisconsin.

Spotted Cow...Where do they come up with a name like that for a beer?
Then it was off to to a wedding.  Paula's niece, Jessica Timman, married Jim Schwefel.  The two have been going together for five years and finally tied the knot. 

Jessica is an opera singer and Jim is a plumber.  The ceremony took place in the Stoughton Opera House.  Very fitting.

Opera singers helped in the ceremony. 

Very well done.
There they were, a young married couple headed out on a life with all of its challenges and rewards.
They left in a Model A Ford from the 1920's.  The car had belonged to Paula's father Chester.  So, the car was named Chester in his honor.  A fitting tribute.
Then there was the wedding dinner.

Hmmm...does this mean that there may be another wedding in the family soon?
This brings up a story about a food that you eat that causes pain and suffering for many years to come.  It is WEDDING CAKE! 
Quote of the day:  We wish them the best.   Mark    < Back to previous story Ahead to next story >
