- A truck driver is dead following a rear-end crash on I-43 Thursday morning that shut down the northbound highway for most of the day near the Waukesha/Big Bend exit.
Nearby residents said the loud sound of the crash could be heard from inside their homes.

“You guys can, like, sing ‘I’ve Been Working on the Railroad’ or something," Pat Witkowski said to her fellow volunteers working on the Ice Age Trail.
Witkowski leads the group Blazing Babes. They build trails, remove invasive species, and put up blazes, which are these yellow trail markers. That’s how they got their name.
“I don't think very many of the guys in our troop want to hang out with us. I mean, who wants to talk about menopause?” Witkowski said with a laugh.

- Koi fish street art can be found all around Milwaukee, painted by artist Jeremy Novy. Heather Ladage commissioned Novy to paint some on her street.
