The wife don't want to go, but I want another time out before
it get crappy. Heading up to the Kettle Moraine Northern Unit
and staying at the Mauthe Lake State Park Campground. Only
going to be three nights, but that will let me go on the Ice
Age trail on 2 separate days both ways. Looking forward to
hiking through this wonderful place.

Nice!
We've managed to cram a few days into the schedule, and will head
to Ponca State Park in northeast Nebraska a week from Sunday.
It's a park my folks took me too when I was a kid, and is on the
bluffs above the Missouri. There's a great overlook of three
states (S. Dakota, Iowa, and Nebraska). Should be nicely cool by
then! Expecting to get in some hiking myself.

Since the warden isn't going, I got myself 2 nice cigars to
smoke around the campfire. Of course since I reserved my
dates, the forecast has changed from no rain in sight, and now
the two days I was going hiking it is supposed to rain at about
50% chance. I'll be sitting under the awning listening to it
and having a smoke if it gets bad.
Not all bad. We had planned to get out on the tandem this morning
before the wind got bad, but bailed because it was blowing like
hell before we even were ready to go. Took a "rain" check for
tomorrow, and if it is as windy tomorrow will probably hike instead.
It's been decades since we did any of our favorite hikes on the
bluffs overlooking the Missouri River, so that'll be a fun fallback
option...
