Good afternoon Wimdom, Minnesota. This is John, and this is Chris. Hope everyone is doing well and dandy. Yesterday, after we left you, we meandered our way from Chicago into the rolling hills of Wisconsin. Our first stop of the day was the great city of Milwaukee which has not only produced terrible baseball, but also terrible beer. Here, we stopped briefly to see the Art Museum of Milwaukee which is a spectacular piece of architecture that sits directly on Lake Michigan. It is indeed, a gem in the city. We then proceeded to Miller Park, home of the Milwaukee Brewers, for a quick photo shoot. Pressing on, we arrived in Madison Wisconsin, alma mater of several relatives as well as the capitol of Wisconsin. Truly, a beautiful and vast campus.
Having pleased our appetites with some Wisconsin brats, we were on the move once again heading Northwest to Minneapolis, Minnesota. Here, we would spend the night with Chris' second cousin and bearded harley crusader, Dan, and wife Mary Jo. A quaint home about an hour north of Minneapolis, they were wonderfully hospitable and made our stay in the boonies of Minnesota, a great one. They own three horses, three Harley's, and a miniature Doberman Pinscher. We spent the night in their trailer home next to the house, the only place in or outside of the house with A/C and awoke this morning refreshed. Breakfast awaited us at seven am and we hit the road shortly thereafter.
We are now stopped in Wimdom, Minnesota, twenty minutes from Route 90 and the South Dakota border. Luckily, the Mcdonalds offered free wifi and allowed us to update this heavily followed and critical blog. Once we hit the border we will push on out 340 miles West to Mount Rushmore. Wonderful. Godspeed.
