A well-deserved break

I can only imagine the excitement that awaits Gretchen today at Loon Day in Mercer, Wisconsin (Loon Capital of the World!). All I know is she'll be having a bratwurst and a beer before noon, which is a healthy Wisconsin tradition. She's taking a much-needed mini-vacation at her family's cabin up in Northern Wisconsin before wrapping things up in Madison and returning to Basel in a couple of weeks.
