Despite the fact that the weather in Milwaukee has been less than stellar for, oh I don’t know, eight months, as of April 6th, I made the firm decision that spring had arrived and I’d no longer be acknowledging winter or cold. It’s spring, dammit, and that means outdoor happy hours must commence.

To that end, my friends and I have resumed our tradition of Friday night happy hours in which we wander the city, trying out new bars, new drinks and new patios. Last week, we descended upon Hotel Foster on North Ave. to soak up a few minutes of sun before the fog rolled in.

Hotel Foster is interesting…. they make a good drinks and the beer is cheap, but the bar is definitely different. I couldn’t get over the strange smell and most of my friends were less than impressed.

That said, when the sun out is out, it’s a Friday afternoon and you’re surrounded by good friends, who cares where you are? Life is good. And spring is here.
