Scenes from Wisconsin

We're still hanging around in Wisconsin. Ron's been working on genealogy, we attended his high school reunion, had dinner last night and tonight with two more of his 35 cousins and we're meeting his best childhood friend for lunch tomorrow. We really have to eat some leftovers soon - the refrigerator is bursting at the seams.

I promised the cousins I wouldn't post their pictures so I'll post a couple of the more unusual sights we've found.

Somebody really takes their football seriously!


We loved this little Winnebago Brave we saw at Sams Club. It's no longer than a car.


Driving along the road, we keep looking for the sandhill cranes that we understand are in the area. Although the sandhills have been elusive, we did discover this rare red crane and managed to get a shot of it.

Just look at that long, graceful neck!

    I'm with Sally! 35 cousins seems mind boggling. No wonder Ron needs to work on his geneology. Tell him to be sure to share his findings with those 35 cousins, et al. Saves them a lot of work!

    That's a really big crane! I wonder if he migrates.

    WHere in Wisconsin? We are in Wisconsin. In Wausau.
    Watch out for that crane! He might think you are food.

    The Paul Bunyon in your picture looks just like the one north of Eureka Ca. and that one watches you and makes jokes about what your doing.
