Brunet Island / Wissota State Parks

Mid September. Three nights at Brunet State Park, accompanied by Bill and Jan S. Nice campground on an island outside of Cornell, WI, a very small town (altho it has a good grocery store.)  There were two separate camp loops, electric, and non-electric.  We found ourselves in the non-electric loop, which actually had better sites.  Electric site very open, everyone packed in together.

Kayaked around the island. Biked the Old Abe trail, which starts there and heads south into Chippewa Falls.  Nice trail, paved.

We pedaled into Chippewa fall and kicked around town one day.  Another day, we drove to Eau Claire and rode starting at Phoenix Park, right downtown, rode the Chippewa River Trail out for about 10 miles before turning around. Pavement was great in town, but at the city limits in became very rough.

Harrington Beach State Park June 2020

The title says it all.  Madeline came for a night.  It’s close to Milwaukee. There was a fair amount of gloomy weather and rain.

Harrington RV sites were fairly far from the beach, and out in a no tree area.  There was privacy from other sites, provided by lower heavy bushes, but no shade. The only bathroom was a large, new, deluxe structure up a hill. Individual family showers.

Tucson, AZ and Southern CA – Feb 2020

Flew to Tucson, rented a car.  Shared an AirBnb with the Stubers for about a week. Then we moved over the Curt and Susan’s house for 3 nights.

After that, we drove to San Diego, stayed with Eileen’s cousin Cathy for two nights.  Played the tourists. Then it was up to Culver City for a week the Denise and Mike.  Lots of fun there, things to do.  Paddle tennis, several long bike rides, lots of good food.
