Heading to Wisconsin

Today was a move day, but only about 4 hours driving. Woke up and went for a walk, packed up, and was rolling by 10:00. Along the way we stopped in Madison Wisconsin and did a bike ride around the lake loop. This loop goes around Lake Monona which is right in downtown Madison. Great ride, all pavement with Great Lake views. About 13 miles long and bike lanes for most of it. Madison boasts that it is one of the most bike friendly cities and they have plenty of bike routes to prove it. After our ride we went to our first harvest host site for the night. What a great spot, it was in this guys yard, with water and power hookups. He had two white English cream golden retrievers and built us a campfire after dinner. We had a chance to relax with them and tell stories. It was a lot of fun and felt so warm and welcoming.Read more
