The past 3 days through Wisconsin have been sweeeeeet. We all agree that Wisconsin has surprisingly enough been one of our favorite states. We spend almost every day winding around beautiful lake after beautiful lake. The lakeside routes have consisted of endless rolling hills on quiet county roads. Who knew? I always had assumed that Wisconsin didn’t have much more than farmland and lots of Dairy cows. One woman at the VFW that hosted us for dinner last night told us that Wisconsin actually has more lakes than Minnesota. The “Land of 10,000 Lakes” my butt. Wisco rocks. *knock on wood* I shouldn’t even say this, but the weather has been absolutely ideal. We have been starting our days in crispy morning weather and then not surpassing 85 degrees F all day long. Just cold enough to want a jacket in the morning and just warm enough to jump in lakes/rivers midday.
Another great thing about wonderful Wisconsin? The road names! Minnesota was lame because almost all of the cross roads went by the name of like “175th ave” or “369th st”.

Lightning Round: Most memorable road name
Jamie - Cow Drink a lot Rd.
Eddie - Chicken in the Woods Rd.
Witt - Turtle Flambo Rd.
Jade - Dump Rd.

Gabby - Shortcut Rd.
Oliver - 21 3/4 Rd.

Charlie Thompson, father of Webster Thompson, graced us with his presence for like 24 hours. He showed up in a shiny silver Dodge Charger mid morning yesterday and then peaced out mid afternoon today. We had a blast with him which made us all the more excited for his support week, week 7. Last night after buying us all ice cream at some funky drive in place in Crandon, WI he showed up with a bag of goodies! Jacob got laundry soap because of how bad is clothes tend to reek, Oliver got lip balm for the ladies, Reid got some intersteding Lavender concoction because he likes weird concoctions, and everyone got some yummy ginger candies. Thanks, sir!

With farmland comes these awful smelling trucks. The first one that passed us we made the mistake of breathing at all. approximately 3 seconds after this thing passed we were all gagging doing our best not to actually vomit. I have no idea what is in these foul vehicles but after interaction number one we quickly learned to bury our faces in our jerseys the next time we saw one coming within like 5 miles of us. Great lung training.
Things are great & we’re all healthy!
