Wisconsin Vacation-



We had the best time with our Wisconsin friends during our summer vacation! What a blast... I don't even know where to begin! Well, first thing we would like to thank our hosts - Kristina, Darrell and Arlo :) They are super fabulous! What great friends... they let us stay in their beautiful home, shared their toys, cooked great meals for us and showed us the ropes of living Up North. I think Joe and I could get used to it - you betcha!


We got to visit Wilderness Walk - a very cool petting zoo, took a trip to Bayfield to see Lake Superior, rode the ferry to Madeline Island, and on our last (and only warm day) hung out at the beach. We were also lucky enough to see Kristina's parents at their amazing cabin - INCLUDING "Taco Night with Arlo and Ben." So much fun!!


Ben did great on the 13-hour road trip - even though he didn't sleep for one minute on the way there. We were able to divide the drive both going there (stayed in Madison - where Ben flashed everyone at our hotel) and on the way home (a visit to Chicago - more to come on that).


Thanks to our great friends - hopefully we're still in the running for a group vacation to the beach :) We've submitted our resume and references...

    What great pictures of your vacation up north! They truly show the fun you had and the fun had by those with you. It was great seeing all of you. I enjoyed visiting with you, but most especially enjoyed getting to know your Ben. He's such a nice little boy, handsome, and sweet. I'll think of him each time I hear the train whistle. It truly was a pleasure seeing all of you. Come back and visit any time. Love from your friends, Jane & Ed

Can't wait to see them all! Miss you so much!!!! You are the only guests I know that leave a house cleaner and more organized than it was before you visited! Love you all, Kristina
