Wisconsin 2022

A small group of friends agreed to join me on a trip to see Wisconsin. We flew into Madison and drove to the Dells. We stayed at the Sundara Inn & Spa, made very inexpensive by six people sharing a large room. We even had our own hottub on our private patio. Perhaps the most surprising part of our long weekend was a Wisconsin Dells boat trip.

This would be a great place to visit with kids. The dells area is a summer playground for families with amusement parks abound. Since it is so far north, I do suggest a sweatshirt like this one for women or this one for men for those cooler days or evenings!

One our way home we stopped for famous cheese curds. When the curds are room temperature they actually squeak when you eat them. So fun! I also found out that Wisconsin is The Badger State, which seems very unfair. According to the Wisconsin Historical Society, miners lived in their lead mines to get through the harsh winters, so people mocked them and called them badgers for living in burrows in the ground like animals. Perhaps they should be called the cheese curd state because those curds are delish!
