Northern Wisconsin is lovely! It’s a lot like the Lakes Area in New Hampshire, but without the mountains and the roads are in much better shape. There’s actually quite a few people up here and there are a lot of towns. Wherever you see lakes, you see lake homes, and there are lakes everywhere. It’s a bit of a culture shock from the vast emptiness in western Oregon in Washington, Montana, Idaho, and North Dakota. Most of the vehicles are cars not trucks now if that provides any indication. It looks like a great place to raise a family and the people are super kind. If I grow up here, I’d probably have never left.

Tonight, I’m sleeping in Marion Park in Glidden Wisconsin. They let people camp here for free. The rest rooms are open all night and I’m the only one in the park. No fireworks and the ATV people have all gone to supper. It should be a good night for sleeping.
