Spotted in Wisconsin

Well I did a search and didn't find a spotted in WI like most of the other sections have so I figured I would start one. If there is one that I could find just send me a link and I will delete this and and make my post there.


Today I spotted a blue SS/SC in Madison off of Verona Rd at McDonald's when I was taking lunch. I was in my work truck, thats when I seem to spot other balts, never in my cobalt. Not sure if the person is on here but I didn't get close enough to read any of the stickers on the back window. Is anyone this person or now this person, or is anyone from/live in Madison? I am here for work for a couple of weeks living in the extended stay, but Madison seems nice sofar. If the weather is fair my wife and I will be out and about discovering the town Sunday.

So much for the weather being fair. You're going to freeze your Texas ass off!

I live in Verona, and I think I have one of the only Turbo Cobalts. I've seen several SS/SCs around the west side by the mall...a yellow, red, and copper color (forgive me for not knowing the correct name).

A girl was driving the yellow one. =)

I drive the beltline every day and seldom see any Cobalt SS's or Ions at all. Heck, even on the local forums, there isn't many at all.

Sometimes that just happens. I try to go to meets everywhere that I go and have ALLOT of fun. When I was in Arkansas we had a meet that pretty much lasted 6 months and we all became best friends. When I was in Washington I went to a meet in Seattle and met Tom(NWAE Cobalt) and many others. Its not about how many people come, its about the people you meet and friendships gained, ideas shared, places seen, etc, etc. I wish I was here long enough to attend a meet.

I miss you guys to. This cold weather SUCKS! I don't even think its cold for these guys. They kinda snicker when I say I am freezing my ass off.

It is...I think I know exactly where you're staying. Junction Rd. and Old Sauk? I actually stayed there for a while when I first started working up here.

If you get bored, and want to see some kind of wacky artwork/architecture, you can stop by 1979 Milky Way
Verona, Wisconsin 53593
http://www.epicsystems.com/about-locations.php

...and go on the self-guided tour. It's kinda cool. Just don't mess up my office.

If you're around the Milwaukee area, along HWY 100, you are bound to run into a few SS/SCs on a nice Friday or Saturday night. I have seen and been a part of some stupid **** along that road. So much for nice nights though. I haven't seen any SS/TCs on the street yet but I've seen a couple at 2 different Chevy dealers close to me, I'm sure a few are around. It's pretty hard to make out the differences between an SS/SC and a TC unless you are very close.
