We are well into summer already, as usual time is going quickly.  Wisconsin like most of the country is getting into high temperatures and high humidity.  Presently we are in the Door Peninsula of Wisconsin and getting some Great Lakes breezes and certainly cooler than back in Oshkosh. We are in our second week and weather is a little cooler.  Wisconsin has had some terrible storms but we came through ok.  We have been doing this trip for most of our 41 years of marriage, and a chance to see a number of the friends we camped with during those vacations.  Of course now we camp in a motel, which is working wonderfully.  Actually part of a townhouse with a nice courtyard and pool behind us.  We are in town for easy evening walks!  But we are also just outside the park and a short ride in to see those that are camping.  Already have some golf in and visits to favorite restaurants and new bars!

After arriving home to Oshkosh in May,  Marie came to visit in early June and we quickly headed to Hayward Wisconsin for our yearly trip to spend a week near Dick and Carol.  We now rent what was the owner’s house at Dick and Carol’s resort that they have their trailer parked at.  Fishing was slow for Dick and I but we still managed a fresh fish fry and lots of fun.  Getting back to Oshkosh we had a chance to catch up with old friends and more fun.  Always good to catch up with everyone, and even had a chance to have my homebrew friends over for some beer tasting.  Near the end of June we headed to the Detroit area to spend a week with MJ and John, and be there for MJ’s birthday.  John and I took down a small Oak tree, trimmed up a large Maple, and finished some landscaping.  We left Marie with MJ, and Marie flew home from Detroit.  Chris and I traveled through the UP of Michigan to come home for almost a week, and then we started this Door County trip.  So life continues to be good.
