June 24 - Green Bay to Racine, Wisconsin

Happy Anniversary Mom and Dad!

Wisconsin is in the midst of a heat wave! Everyone here thinks they will absolutely melt. It seems just like a normal summer to us! It has slowed us a bit, but not much. The hotel air conditioning is good....tonight that is, last night it was a different story as the temp in the room never dropped below 80 degrees. The room was otherwise great and we were so tired we just lived with it. It is surprising how many cut-rate hotels have microwaves and refrigerators in the rooms. Means we can shop for dinner or get delivery and eat the left overs for breakfast! Having the computer means I can look online for Chinese!

Only a few pictures today:

These "bottles" are part of the Anheuser-Busch's Busch Agricultural Resources, LLC Manitowoc Malt Plant. We felt like industrial spies as we drove around the plant taking pictures. Lester started drooling at the sight of these Texas-sized beer bottles! (Manitowoc, Wisconsin)

Took a ride down memory lane today. Actually, this is on Lovers Lane in Germantown, Wisconsin. This is the house I spent most of my teenage years.

Germantown High School formally known as Washington High School. No idea why they changed the name. I graced the halls of this school from freshman through junior years.

Lester says he might consider coming out of retirement if the post office would let him drive this vintage postal vehicle! (Well....probably not!) This was just one of the many great displays at the Harley-Davidson Museum in Milwaukee, Wisconsin.

  1. Well, it's miserably hot here, near or over a 100 almost every day. Our kids are coming from CO this weekend. Are they ever in for a shock!

    Enjoy WI. What's next?
