Mini on the Mack 2015 + Sadie’s Ice Cream Parlor

Bessie missed out on a chance to break the world record! Luckily, we were over a hundred short at 1,319 Minis making their way to the Mackinac Bridge for the World's Longest Parade of Minis. Whew!

Adrian’s Frozen Custard + Superdawg

Bessie delivers the usual suspects down to Adrian's Custard in Burlington, Wisconsin, for dinner and custard with the Milwaukee Minis. Dinner was hot dogs all-around. If you don't like hot dogs, you'll just have Adrian's custard for dinner. I had a delicious rocky road sundae for dessert. Thank goodness I only had one hot dog!
