On Friday evening December 19, 2014 we traveled to Folklore Village for a Christmas concert. We performed in the historic Plum Grove Church. After the concert we went to Farwell Hall for refreshments and the lighting of the Christmas tree. We sang some Christmas carols and then headed back to Madison, with a quick stop at the Grumpy Troll brew pub in Mt. Horeb.
Here are some pictures – as always click on the thumbnail to see the larger photo.

If you have Norwegian flag socks you might as well wear them if you're going to visit Mt Horeb
