Day 20 – Minneapolis, MN to Wisconsin Dells, WI

Day 20 of #BoxsterRoadTrip took us from Minneapolis to Wisonsin Dells.

IMG_2148IMG_2159We left Minneapolis around 9:30 and jumped on the Interstate.  Big mistake.  Traffic, trucks, RV’s and crazy people.  We only traveled a few miles and decided it was back onto US-12.  The speed limit (except going through the little towns) is 55 and often we couldn’t see another car either in front or behind us.  And I’m talking miles in front and back.  It was as if the road was US-Jo&Steve instead of US-12!  Yes, you have to slow for the little towns, but that is the fun of it.  Several of those little towns were horse-and-buggy Amish communities.  Don’t see that on an Interstate!

 

IMG_2154On our way to the Dells, we began to see our first glimpses of autumn color.  We had lunch at a place in Wisconsin Dells called Mac’s, which just serves different kinds of mac & cheese.  Comfort food.  Perfect food for cheese country.  We are staying at a timeshare called Mirror Lake & Tamarack Resort.  The first thing we did upon arriving was laundry!

IMG_2151The next few days will be spent doing day trips from this location.  It is nice to feel “settled” for a few days before the next leg of the trip.  So, even though we are staying put for a few days . . .

The journey continues . . .
