In Wisconsin

We left Amherst at 6:00 AM 6/25/2012, and after driving for 20 hours made it to Waupaca just in time for Ian's birthday (by 2 minutes!)  We headed down to Weasel's, had a beer and then crashed at 301 Eastlake Street.  Here was Austin's bed that last night, thanks to Kyle (a graduate student renting the house) it was not just the floor!

Pirate had a nice chunk of real estate in the back seat and Chris and Austin had just enough leg room to stand 20 hours of driving.  We landed in Kenosha at about 8:45 PM and stopped at Culver's. Pirate enjoyed a butterburger with fries because he was such a good car dog.

Austin woke up the next morning at 6:30 AM due to Pirate's panting and introduced him to Max and Norm.  Max and Norm were very excited to meet him, Pirate was not as excited. They are getting along nicely now (most of the time...).  Austin and Chris went to work scraping paint off of 301 Eastlake (aka Money Pit).  I don't think Chris thought he signed up for that.  Following some paint scraping, they all went out (Austin, Mary, Ian, Mark, and Chris) and played standing rocks while the doggies had the afternoon to themselves.

A great trip so far! Next up, Austin dropping Chris off at Hubert Humphrey and then heading West to Billings.
