Day 29 - Made it to Dodgeville

We spent the night at the Cracker Barrel in Wisconsin Dells.

We had a great time in Wisconsin Dells!  We took a tour on one of the boats, a slow one on the upper side.  The rock formations were amazing.

I will update later with more photos.







We headed out and stopped at Taliesin but got there too late to tour it.  We took just s few outside photos.




Next, we happened across the town of Spring Green.  We discovered several buildings here had a Frank Lloyd Wright influence and enjoyed taking snapshots of some of them.  And what a friendly town, tonight was Locals Night - The Shed.  There was music, a crooner with a crooner microphone.  And food and drink.  All this happening in the prettiest downtown park.  We had a very pleasant time meeting and talking with some friendly locals!

Day 27 Made it to Sun Prairie, WI

We spent the night at the Walmart in Shawano.

We got on the road and stopped at the North Star Mohican casino.  That has been our best casino stop this trip so far!

First, they offer a free dump station for RVers.

They give new members $10 free play, seniors $10 free play and $10 free play for your birthday.  Together we had $50 free play!

We played that money and cashed out with right at $160, it was nice.

We then went to the buffet, they had a senior buffet that day for $9.95 that was also a nice meal.

After eating I headed out to the RV to check on Spike and left Debra while she finished her meal.  The AC was on and it was 71 degrees in the RV , so Spike was great.  Debra got back to the RV and said she stopped by the Kronos machine again and put in $6 and cashed out with $39!

We stopped and filled out fuel tank and got on the road.  We pulled into the Cabela's in Sun Prairie for the night.  Had a pretty good rain during the night.

Day 26 - WWII Glider and Military Museum and the Cornish Steam Pump

We spent the night at the Walmart in Iron Mountain, MI.

We visited the WWII Glider and Military Museum and the Cornish Steam Pump Museum.  Both were very interesting, the pump was unbelievable in the size and volume of the water it could pump.  Up to five million gallons of water a day!

Point Iroquois Lighthouse - Brimley, MI

This is a beautiful old light house!  They have the the place where the keeper's family set up with period furnishings.  You can even climb the lighthouse if you want to.


I will add more photos later.

Day 25 - Lakenenland

We spent the night at the Kewadin casino in Christmas, MI.  They have a nice little set up for RVs, they offer free overnight parking with electric hookups!

The last several days I have not had and data coverage, hardly any cell phone coverage.  I will have to catch up on where we have been, so my time line will be out of order for a bit.



We saw a sign to visit Lakenenland, it was a unique walk or drive path of unique metal sculptures.

Day 21 -

We spent the night at the Kewadin casino in Sault Ste Marie. I made a little money in the morning, that was nice








We drove over to Canada and did some sightseeing and ate lunch at the Westside Cafe.  The fried whitefish was very good.




We visited the old locks and watched some boat go through them.  We went through the Panamal Canal locks on a cruise ship a couple of years ago.  So now we seen the process from both views.

We then hiked the trail on Whitefish Island and saw the rapids.




Then back over the bridge to the US of A and a beautiful sunset.

Day 20 - Made it to Sault Ste. Marie

We spent the night at the Kewadin casino  in St Ignace, that is another nice casino to overnight at.

We took one last drive through the town and had to make last tourist stop. 

We stopped at Castle Rock and checked out the gift shop.  We did not climb the stairs to the top.




We then headed to De Tour, MI, a little town that was very busy.  We stopped at the De Tour Village Inn and I bought a mushroom Swiss cheese burger, it was very good.


From there we made it to Pickford, MI and visited the farmers market.  I bought a strawberry scone to eat later tonight.  We also stopped at The Junk Trunk, a place with many different treasures.






We left there and headed to Sault Ste Marie and met some fellow Pleasure Way owners we had seen driving down the road a few days earlier.
