Memorial Day - Lake Neshonoc Lakeside Camp/Resort

We finally booked Memorial day weekend for an outing. We really want to get to Wisconsin to see Rich and Beth and the girls so we thought that weekend would be good for an extended trip. We are really looking forward to seeing them again, and there will be a NEW Clements, yet to be named who we'll get to see too - We are REALLY excited about getting to Wisconsin.

The one thing you always have to keep in mind on Memorial and Labor Day is that anybody who owns any type of camper or likes to tent camp is camping on these weekend. There are a couple state parks in that area of WI that are booked solid for any kind of electrical hook up. Another private park I checked (Pettibone) had four of there over 100 sited left so key to success here is getting thing planed and scheduled ahead of time.

We are staying here http://www.neshonoclakeside.com/ and it looks like a GREAT set up. We may be adventurous and leave on Thursday late afternoon and stay WHEREVER about half way up. Makes me nervous not having things scheduled but worse case scenario we can pull off in a city park or a truck stop somewhere to sleep as we wont be making a "camp" per se on Thursday night anyhow.

I really, really want to get to the point where we simply get hooked up and GO. With no certain destination in mind, kind of like wandering nomads but that makes me a little nervous too - Not sure why, I feel that would be a GREAT adventure and a great way to see things you may not see on the way. HECK, half the fun is the travel getting somewhere...

This weekend the weather is going to be great and it will be hard staying put but I have a big Honey Do list to do including fixing our dishwasher that just went on the fritz, so I guess its best to stay home.

Until next time...
