A lot has happened since I blogged about all the artwork I was doing and how Granny and I were preparing for our May 15 yard sale.  Two days ago Granny and I hopped in the 91 Explorer and drove for Wisconsin.  We talked about doing another road trip for the last month and a week ago Granny got two weeks off and that’s all it took.

I must say we were a little nervous about my Explorer going all the way to WI.  It’s been running great and it was a champ for our Arizona trip in February.  But you can’t take away the fact that its 20 years old.  But we covered Wyoming, stopped at Wall Drug in South Dakota and here we are tonight in Lanesboro, Minnesota.

We are going to fish this trip but that’s not all this excursion is about.  We will visit friends and look at some cool towns around the Wisconsin.  This is my old stomping grounds from college and I had great fishing those days.  We often joke that maybe we’ll move back.  Who knows?  For now however, Granny and I are ready to check out the brew pub down the street from our hotel.  Tomorrow we’ll head across the Mississippi River to Wisconsin.
