I recently visited Madison, but didn't have time to visit the Monona Terrace Gift Shop to buy the…read morebirthday present I had planned to get. Instead, I ended up ordering online and had the present mailed directly to my friend. At checkout, there was a box where I was able to enter a message, and all I wrote there was "Happy Birthday!". I expected that message to appear somewhere on the shipping label (as I've seen other places do), but no. What arrived inside the shipping box was another beautifully wrapped box with a bow and a hand-addressed little Frank Lloyd Wright note card. Totally unexpected, and terrific!
