Touchdown! Greaser!
Saturday night, I picked up Kate Bernard (skyflyer8) at Brennand and we flew to Portage (C47), where I'd been wanting to try out The Hitching Post for a while.
The restaurant is a little tough to find - From the terminal building at the south end of the airport, you walk West to the first road (a block before the light) and take a right. You will not think you are going the right direction, but once you pass the National Guard facility it's right there on the right.
It's a very popular place, it was packed. Food was decent and reasonably-priced and service was good. It makes a good, albeit somewhat short $100 burger hop.
Afterwards, we flew over toward MTW so we could see the moon's reflection on Lake Winnebago and Lake Michigan, and of course just to have an excuse to fly a little more. I love night VFR!
It was nice meeting you, Kate... I had a great time!
