When we left Land O Lakes and Northwoods Tire we decided to head west to explore a bit of northern Wisconsin and then some of the Mississippi River. We also needed to find a overnight spot with laundry facilities. We ended up at the KOA north of Hayward WI. The property looks as if it was a pulpwood tree farm before being converted into a destination campground and water park. It must be a really busy place in the summer and perhaps also during snowmobile season but it’s quiet right now. And peaceful! It was a fine place to weather an overnight rainstorm.

London’s National Portrait Gallery’s temporary exhibition, “Six Lives: The Stories of Henry VIII’s Queens” presents an amazing collection of portraits, jewelry, personal effects, books, costumes, and more to illustrate not only the lives of the six women who married the second Tudor king, but the effort across five centuries to keep their memory alive.
