June 29-July 5, 2016~Still in Wisconsin~second stop....Two Rivers- Setting up~Another bike ride

Wednesday June 29, 2016- This morning we leave Wisconsin State RV Park in West Allis, Wisconsin. Our destination today is The Stop & Dock Marina & RV Park in Two Rivers, Wisconsin. It's only a distance of about 90 miles or so. For that reason, our take off this morning is not quite the same as our usual take offs! Lennie did take his regular 4 mile morning walk while Otis & I snuggled in the bed. I learned that his walk took him past a bakery & this morning he surprised me with a bakery goodie!!!

                                          No pastry for Otis just his morning.....dog food!

Yesterday while walking around the German section of town, Lennie mosied into a meat store. This morning before we leave, we drive back to the meat store for sausage & cheese!

Otis & I wait patiently in the car while Lennie goes to make his purchase.

Now it's time to head out!

                                                                     Here we go.....

                                          We drive by the front of the Brewer's Stadium

        We're not in a big hurry, so we're going to get of the interstate & take a scenic back road

Good cause I like the country scenery!

                                            We can never get away from road construction!

                                                         "Are we almost there mom?"

                                                      Yes we are....we're in town now!

                                                                     Lake Michigan

           The bike path along Lake Michigan, I think we will meet that bike path personally later!!

                                                 The town of Two Rivers, Wisconsin!

                                      We have arrived at Stop & Dock Marina & RV Park

                                                      We wait while Lennie checks in.....

Not fishing off of that dock....

                                                                Or that one either!?!

 After we picked our site, & set up.....Lennie thought there was a problem with the electrical outlet. He went up to get the owner of the RV Park.

                                             I think they got everything all figured out!?!

                                               This is our view from the front window!

                    After lunch we went to take care of my favorite chore.....NOT ! Laundry!

Lennie calls himself "helping"!!!!

Later in the evening, we were walking Otis, this little bird was just hopping around. He seemed to have a problem with his tail feathers?

                       He looked okay till he tried to fly, & then he couldn't get off the ground.....


                                                          We kept waiting for this!!!

What a way to end our day!!!

June 25-28, 2016~Milwaukee bike ride~Driving around Milwaukee

Monday June 27, 2016- We woke up to a beautiful day!!! We are going to take advantage of this nice day by going on a bike ride!The bike path is right behind our campground!

                                                                         We start out.....

We are riding on the Hank Aaron State Trail, named after one of baseball's greatest players!!!The Hank Aaron State Trail is a paved path for bicyclists, walkers, runners, & skaters. It is miles & miles of a paved pathway, we are only riding a short distance of it!!!

 Shortly into our ride we come to the Historic Soldier's Home, an interesting area that contains buildings dating back to 1867.Originally founded to provide a home for returning Civil War Soldiers, the complex greatly expanded over time & includes a cemetery honoring our nations fallen.

                    This building is where the Soldiers came to see plays & listen to musicals.....

This was the "Governor's" house! NOT the state, just Governor of the Soldier's Home complex.

                                     
                                   This sign tells all the information I couldn't remember!!!

              As we continue riding, the bike path takes us behind the Brewer's Stadium......

                & then to the Valley Passage Ramp leading up to the Urban Ecology Center.

   We are now riding through the new Three Bridges Park on our way to Mitchell Park & The Domes.

                            I'm not just looking foolish....I'm being a human SUN DIAL!

             Can you believe this.....even on the bike path there's ROAD CONSTRUCTION!?!

                                                                   Wait.... WHAATT????

                                        Looks like they knew what they were talking about!?!

We stick to the path we started out on & ride back to the Campgrounds.Lennie said our ride was probably a distance of 7 or 8 miles, it felt longer than that to me!!!! Otis was, as always, happy to see us!

                                                                             " Hi Mom!~ Hi Dad!!!!"

                                                                    " Did you bring me anything!?!"

Look Where we went tonight after dinner!!!!

                 Up here the big thing is Frozen Custard, not ice cream??? It is soooooo good!!!!

They didn't have any outside eating, we made do in our car!

We can't keep doing this!?!
