Fishing Trip

We went fishing with some friends at a lake near their house and had a fantastic afternoon of fishing. Madison caught her big one on a leech within 10 seconds of casting it into the lake.

Elroy to Sparta Wisconsin Bike Ride

We went on a weekend trip to Wisonsin to ride the Elroy to Sparta bike trail. This trail is an old railroad track and goes through three tunnels. We had a great time biking and seeing the wonderful green countryside and farms. The tunnels were neat, and we needed headlamps to see in them. Two were about 1600 feet long and one was over 3000 feet long.
Madison had her lantern and was ready for a tunnel!
The tunnel was a little darker (and a lot wetter!) than she expected so she stayed in the bike trailer at the first tunnel.

Madison was more brave at the second tunnel and walked in this one, no water dripping from the ceiling in this one either.
