Favorite thing about Middleton
Middleton’s great schools, the award-winning library, beautifully maintained parks and public spaces, the Pheasant Branch Conservancy is a tranquil respite to urban living. Living in downtown Middleton offers so many benefits including being able to walk to many great local restaurants and services.
Hobbies
My most recent creative outlet is planning my daughter’s upcoming wedding. I always seem to have a home improvement project in the works. Steve & I also enjoy traveling, entertaining, sewing, and watching the Packers. I have dabbled in beekeeping on my brothers’ farm.
