Wading the Trout Stream

2014 West then East, Road Trip, States, Wisconsin

After all that fun on the water we all agreed it was time for some sustenance so we changed into dry clothes and headed into town for the best burgers in town at The Thirsty Beaver. With good food in our bellies we changed back into or wet togs for a walk in the trout stream. Though some of John’s friends might view this as a challenge to be met or a hurtle to overcome, we saw it as a wonderful opportunity. We do a similar kind of thing at home and offer the experience to our summer visitors. There’s something wonderful about walking through chilly water on a warm summers day checking out the fish and the plants along the bank all the while watching your footing and occasionally getting wetter than planned. We walked quite a way then reversed our direction. Actually we were more disappointed than relieved when the bridge where we had put in came into view. We finished the day with grilled brats, incredibly delicious local corn on the cob and red wine.

Burgh House Hampstead

Off the beaten path is Hampstead is the more than three hundred year old Burgh House with a fascinating history. It’s now a community center, local museum, gallery, concert venue, event space, and more open to the public four days a week. We popped over for a bite to eat and to peruse the galleries to learn a little more about Hampstead history.

Wicked The Musical

Wicked The Musical

Ever since its debut on Broadway the two of us have wanted to see “Wicked the Musical”. Today we realized that dream. In the Apollo Victoria Theater in London’s West End we were witness to the incredible prequel to The Wizard of Oz, the story of the Glinda the Good and the Wicked Witch of the West.
