Just like the Willie Nelson song, we’re on the road again, this time with Parker & Easton and heading out for a day adventure to the Canadian Fossil Discovery Centre. Similar to the trip with their brothers Dane and Clark, I’ve produced a short video of the event. “Bruce” is waiting for you!

Things we should have also seen along the way. Seth Peterson Cottage ( I want this!) Bernard Schwartz House – Still Bend Kentucky Knob – Really should have done this, we were soooo close, just didn’t know about it. Chicago – great city to visit and still several FLW sites we’ve not seen (yet!). Things Read More …
We’re on the run for home now. You know how it is when the road trip is coming to and end and your looking forward to returning to the comforts of home. It’s a 7hr drive with a few gas, restaurant and shopping stops, but basically “boogie to the border”. Crossing back to Canada is Read More …
Day 9: Mackinaw City to Duluth. It’s still rainy and windy as we leave Mackinaw City over the bridge and on to the southern shore of Lake Superior. As we cross the bridge you can see Mackinaw Island in the distance and I’m remembering the trip my parents took me on to New York, NY Read More …

Also, a nice review of the trail. This would have left us in Racine, Wisconsin. Well, Racine is close to Chicago where there is Read More …

We’re in Racine, WI today and tonight so very little driving on the agenda today. We have two tours lined up with a little shopping planed in between.

What city is this today? Oh yeah, we’re in Madison WI. (yesterday) 1st stop is the First Unitarian Society, of course another FLW design. Again, their tour schedule doesn’t exactly work for us so we just “drop in” and the nice lady at reception lets us look around a bit and tells us a little Read More …
