<p>I finished reading the book on my trip to Madison this weekend. Her decriptions of Wisconsin small town life seems very accurate from what I have seen. Also fun knowing most of the thinly disguised locations in the book. Very good read. Even drove by the Diesel Driving School on our way to Door County. 85 and sunny all four days, wow. Many Iron Man folks were in our hotel. Can’t say that looks like fun. Great for the local economy but it was unfortunate they had to have it on a football weekend. Everything was jammed.</p>

<p>Well, welcome home. What a treat to spend time in Door County - I haven’t been there in years.</p>

<p>A little too rushed but it was nice. Had not been to DC for at least 20 years. Seemed about the same–had to eat at Johnson’s and the goats were on the roof. Drove up around DC and back in one day. Even buzzed by the new Packers stadium as they got ready to play the Bears. LOng day. But worth it.</p>
