We got up this morning and found that cooler weather had found us. It got all the way up to 61 today and was quite chilly after the warm weather. I was really glad it was cooler when I had to change a flat tire before we could leave the park where we were camped. We found a good place for the tire repair and then got on the road, a little late but with no other problems.
Tonight we're in Madison, WI, with computer but not much. More tomorrow (hopefully)
The life and times of two wanderers who had settled in the small west Texas town of Marathon, now wandering (and wondering) again. Please be sure to sign our Guest Book at the bottom. Thanks.

Filled in our Maps
A close review of our "States Visited" map will show that we have now completed the MN and WI maps as having been visited. That leaves Vermont and Rhode Island the only two 'lower 48' that we haven't visited together. Before O2 is done, we will have completed those also.
You will also note that our tentative travel map has been somewhat altered. As you know, we use plans as a very fluid target that may or may not be close to where we travel. Who knows where we will actually go.
We had a wonderful stay in the Kansas City area, had some fantastic steaks and good BBQ. Leaving there we journeyed to Decorah, Iowa to check it out with neighbors from Marathon. They had been there last year and were very excited about this city. Having spent a week there with them, it is easy to understand why they like it. It is a very enjoyable community, and as anyone who knows us is aware, there was some wonderful food there also.
Leaving them there for a few more days, we made our way north into Minnesota and from here across to Wisconsin, there to visit friends we made as they wandered through Marathon several years ago. We're still wondering though, where is the cool weather.
Stay tuned for more updates as we traverse parts of the 'Great River Road'
