We drove to Wisconsin for Peyton's birthday, watched some baseball games and did some other stuff like go boating on Lake Mendota, etc. Also, a wet and wild July 4 parade in a nearby town in Wisconsin.

This tractor had apparently won an important tractor-pulling contest. Looked pretty tough. Don't remember this model.

Folks in the boat got drenched. I guess if you were coming by in a boat, you were just asking for it.

Another boat gets it. This one might have been made just down the road from us in TN!

Meeting Marilyn's twins at the U of Wisconsin. Vendor said he should have charged me double for my ice cream because I was wearing an OSU hat.
