Wisconsin--last day

Saturday, August 14, 2010

6:00 a.m. I’m the first one up, so I’m going out to watch the sun rise over the lake before I make breakfast and start tackling all the chores we have to do before we leave.


8:30 a.m. Leaving the cabin.

10:30 a.m. Stopping somewhere in Wisconsin near Route 41 at a cheese shop.


11:30 a.m. I’m heading to the cooler to get lunches for everyone.

1:20 p.m. Checking out Magic Water in Rockford, IL. It’s hot, and we have our swimsuits and towels with us, so we’re thinking about doing it.

1:30 p.m. Sarah is crying big, sad tears, because she’s so disappointed that we’re leaving the water park. It was too expensive and crowded, and we decided we really wouldn’t have enough time to do it justice. We promised her we’d come back another time.

3:50 p.m. We are all very glad to be home, and we were welcomed by a fallen branch of our sweet gum tree, several branches in the back yard, and the pool cover half-torn off.

When we got inside, there were two extremely affectionate cats waiting to greet us. Marty helped unpack the suitcases.
