Once underway this morning we made good time to the Wisconsin state line. We stopped in at the visitor center and got talking with some people. The result was a change in plan. We turned left early. Instead of going to Oshkosh and running up along the lake we went up the center of the state to the Minocqua/Woodruff area.
Minocqua is a bit touristy, but here in Woodruff we have found some quiet in a small trailer park that caters mostly to full season renters and semi-permanent tenants that have had trailers here long enough that they now have decks and docks built on their sites. Yes a dock, the park is on a lake and has a small, but nice, beach.
The spaces are pretty skinny. I had to negotiate between two pine trees to get in our spot and once in there was just barely room to get our slides out on either side. There is a picnic table on the site, but if we get neighbors in the spot between the road and us we will not be able to use it. That should not be a problem since we will mostly be sightseeing tomorrow and then off on our way on Thursday.
We are enjoying lower temperatures and as I write this there is a gentle rain falling. The rain is expected to pick up through the evening, but should be just a memory by the time we get up in the morning.
We met a nice couple from Ft Meyers that are here for the season in a Journey like ours, only a year newer. They passed on some ideas of things to do tomorrow. So, tomorrow we will set out to see the area!
