960 Brave Drive – Update

We are committed to start construction on our new home in the spring. We have the design out for bids to various contractors and are finalizing the “Special Use” permit with the county. Our plan is to be back in Wisconsin April and spend the entire summer until the house is complete.

Here is a video of the lot where the seller of the land and the architect of our future home staked out the house and gives a nice tour.

Green Bay, Wisconsin

We spent 4 days in Green Bay on our way to the UP of Michigan. We stayed at the Brown County Reforestation Camp Campground. A well-run government campground. Large sites and nice amenities.

Our first day we toured Title Town and then took the 2-hour Legendary Stadium Tour. Fantastic. We saw the entire stadium including the Visitors Locker Room, Broadcast Booth, a couple of suites and the roof. We then went out the tunnel to the field.

We watched the first half of the Packers / Bears game at Lambeau field / 1919 Kitchen & Tap. We watched the second half at the Hinterland Brewer in Title Town.

Marge & Irv’s Cabin

Before heading home from our Door County travels, we stopped a couple of nights to stay with my Aunt Marge and Uncle Irv at their cabin on Long Lake. We “Mooch-Docked” in their driveway.

We had a great time. Took a pontoon boat ride around the lake; watched a sailboat race from the shore; had dinner at the Golden Nugget.

Door County & Rally

In July, we traveled to Door County Wisconsin and went to the Door County Airstream Rally.

We met Terry and Kirk on our way to the Rally in Shawano Wisconsin. We stayed at Fawn Lake Campground for 3 nights. The group dinner at Classic’s Restaurant and Lounge; a cool place with classic rock as their theem.

While on a beer run, Terry and Kelly stopped at Twig’s Beverage and Museum; super cool place where they make and bottle old fashion soda.

We had lunch at Stubborn Brothers Brewery located in an old theater and enjoyed a beer flight. The beer was so good we bought some 32 ounce cans and Kelly filled his growler.

Terry and Pam visited Al Johnson’s Swedish Restaurant & Butik where they have goats on the roof keeping the grass roof in shape.

Next, we attended the Door County Airstream Rally in Sturgeon Bay, WI. We met up with a bunch of old friends, including the entire Robertson’s family from Kansas! Great time!

After the rally, Terry and Kirk headed home. Pam and Kelly headed to Hy-land Court RV Park in Ellison Bay, Wisconsin. We rode our bikes to the Ferry and went to Washington Island. There, we biked over 30 miles and visited a Fragrant Isle Lavender Farm, Moutain Park Lookout Tower, Jacobsen Museum, Jackson Harbor Soup for beer and chips before heading back to the ferry. Great time on the island.

Next, we headed to Sheboygan, Wisconsin and stayed at Kohler-Andrae State Park for a few days. We visited the Kohler showroom for ideas. Enjoyed lunch at the American Club’s Horse & Plow Pub where Kelly had a flight of Bacon. Yes, 4 different styles of thick cut bacon – Wow!
