Wisconsin

  We crossed the bridge into Wisconsin at La Cross stopping at the Moose Lodge for an overnighter and not an hour after we were there, hundreds of bikers started pulling in. What a sight that was! They were on their way to Lambeau Field in Green Bay WI to a Big" Welcome Home Vietnam Veterans” ceremony for Vets. A long overdue welcome.

       The following morning we again headed down the back roads towards our destination Baraboo WI.  Unlike MN we were in lush green rolling hills. We drove through an Amish area. Got so excited when we came around a curve and there was a buggy in front of us. We later stopped at this little cluster of gift shops down a country road which sold Amish wears along with other local crafts. Wonderful stuff. Good thing I’m in a small camper, sure did want to buy stuff. We also couldn’t resist the Carr Valley Cheese Factory. That we’ll eat!

 

For those of you who don’t know it Jim is a big Circus Fan. He was in a Youth Circus  from age 12 to 16 . And has wanted to come Baraboo  to the Circus World Museum for a very long time. We spent an entire day enjoying the shows, they had a Tiger show, An Illusionist show and of course the Big Top Performance show, and on this day only was an added feature Buffalo Bills Wild West Show. Plus the museum were Jim read EVERYTHING!
