If you followed our story before, you know we LOVE TO TRAVEL,experience new things, new adventures!!! This 2011 Adventure takes us east, traveling toward Salt Lake City, and then into Colorado. From there it will be on through the mid-west, and then into upper Michigan and then Wisconsin. We'll finally get to see some of the Great Lakes! So, please enjoy traveling with us...and the doggies Dee, Scarlett, and Maddy!!

Wednesday, August 3

5 days of rest and quiet....and humidity!!!  We found a very nice KOA park about 5 miles south of Fond du Lac, WI and after looking at the weather forecast for southern WI... decided it would be cooler here!! Unfortunately, the humidity has been SO HIGH that we have been pretty uncomfortable. We have just been lazing around, walking the dogs, swimming in the pool, sleeping in, and enjoying this quiet part of the country.  We are definitely in farming country; we are right next door to a 200 acre dairy.  In fact, the dairy has an ice cream business...just down the drive!!  OMG...scrumptious high calorie and wonderful ice cream.  Makes Tillamook taste like ice milk!!  There is a small pond here as well, for catch and release fishing.  Bernie has been over there several time, catching fish each time.  One afternoon we took Maddy over as well; she so loves to be in the water, and swims so well!!  The fish were still biting after she was done, too!  Since we were just a short drive away and the weather was better today, we drove into Fond du Lac and cruised Main Street, and then went out to their Lighthouse Park.  The city sits at the southern end of Lake Winnebago with a lovely restored lighthouse right on the shores of the lake.  While the water didn't look too inviting, they catch a lot of fish in this lake.  It stretches north to Oshkosh, WI, which is about 25 miles away. Tomorrow, August 4, we are on our way south. This time it will only be about 75 miles, to the village of Milton, WI.  This is where we will gather together with other members of our Newmar RV Club for the summer Pre-Rally.  It will be good to see friends again that we have met in our travels.  For this gathering Bernie and I don't have any duties, unlike our gathering last August.  We're just looking forward to being with friends and enjoying our time in Milton.
