Another connection to Trempealeau started with me trying my hand at cribbage in the spring of 2024. The Trempealeau Hotel has a Thursday night tournament open to the public. Putting on my big girl pants I went incognito to see if my skills were up to the task of not embarrassing myself
It can be awkward inserting yourself into a situation of knowing no one and not knowing the stakes. My fears were quickly diminishing as the bartender filled me in and by the time the evenings games were over I was a winner in more ways than I could count. Everyone was so welcoming, so I put this on my calendar to try every Thursday.
Forward ahead to the end of the year and the Hotel was hosting a wonderful event on Wednesday January 1, 2025 to close out the year and close for a much needed vacation til February 14 as they work not stop through out the year. Included in the festivities was a final cribbage play off for the afternoon.
New cribbage faces were everywhere and after an exhausting but enjoyable 5 games I finished in fourth.
I'd like to give a big thank you to Amy and their wonderful staff for the great hospitality and creating an environment for all to enjoy.
Amy found out about my artisitic side and commissioned some paintings for gifts. Here's the results of her vision to capture some of what makes the Village of Trempealeau special
