When I first moved to LaCrosse I was surprised by the fact that there is something going on almost every weekend. This past weekend no different, I attended my first Irishfest, in past years I was out of town on vacation or had something else going on. This year I made it and was intrigued and entertained. My kids and I really liked watching the Highlander Games. Watching both men and women compete with the hammer throw, the weight throw, weight over the bar and the caber toss, I mean where else can you see athletes tossing a telephone pole? Watching these games while enjoying a Guinness outside, it just doesn’t get much better, up next weekend, Kornfest…not the band but a celebration of Corn in Holmen. We’ll see you there.
