Arrived 7;30pm last night in Friendship, WI at my friends house for a weekend stay and then we will head to my dad's. Yesterday was the fabulous Spam Museum - a destination museum for sure. Two hours of entertainment including the Monty Python Spam skit and a simulation of a game show - Spam Exam. Dennis and I tied on the show - me coming from behind to make the tie. The reward - Spamburgers at a nearby restaurant. Yum. Seriously, they weren't bad except for the salt load and today I'm a bit puffy - but that's the travel experience.
Factoids: 2406 miles so far. Average 46.11 mpg (love that Honda Civic!). 52.18 gallons of gas. $150 for gas. Subway meals - 3. Italian meal - 1. Pulled pork sandwich at roadside grill - 1. Grazing for meals - 14.
Cloudy days 2, thunderstorm 1, sun 3. Fauna: One dead turtle (I thought I'd missed it). Ooops. Three live osprey in a nest, up close and personal with one buffalo (excuse me, bison), eagle - 1, hundreds of prairie dogs, a few wild turkeys and a rabbit running away from the house when we arrived. Flora: pine trees, prairies, more prairies and then a few rolling hills.
Gotta go - dw
