ANCIENT VIKING CAMPGROUND

ANCIENT VIKING CAMPGROUND
August 19: Stoughton, Wisconsin. From under the Bounder's awning you will see a glimpse of this beautiful campground that has actual remnant buildings of a Lutheran orphanage that was founded in 1889. We are near Baker and Laura's home about 6 miles from here. An exciting portion of the adventure developed when the Bounder's outside door decided to lock itself and refused to budge open until the 123rd try. A trained RV repair person is on the way to work on the latch. Please give me credit for not attempting self repairs. Janis says we could get in through a window if necessary. I'm not so sure about me.

Intermission

I am publishing this post due to some folks' advice that we haven't issued any posts for a spell. I am somewhat amazed that anyone reads the blog and would miss any recent postings. At any rate, we are presently resident in the Ashland condo where we have been working on fixing, painting, cleaning, de-junking, addressing the unexpected presence of water, and listing on the market. If all goes as planned, we will in essence be trading the Ashland condo for one in southwestern Florida. We like the Bounder but may upgrade it and spend about 6 months on the road in the warmer months including time in the greater Ashland/Bluegrass area. If all goes as planned, we will be departing here June 10 and going up to Bethesda for the US Open at Congressional. Then we may head into the Gettysburg, PA area for a little historical enlightenment, and eventually into the Northern Michigan and Madison Wisconsin areas later in the summer. We should be back in Ashland by October. Thanks for your interest and I'll certainly keep you posted!
