Just another day in Wisconsin

One morning last week we got down to -30 degrees for a low and the high for that day was only going to get up to 0 degrees.  Some people up here say that there is really no difference once it gets below zero but we could really tell!

More condo pictures

The two nice things about our condo is a washer and dryer and a place to change out of your snowy, messy boots into your slippers.  Could you imagine trying to haul clothes to the Laundromat with snow and -20 degree temperatures?!?  Next post we will have to show you how we bundle up for the weather.  It's a little bit of a procedure!

Moved into our new place

We are still working up in Wisconsin for the winter but moved from the lakehouse to a condo at Tagalong golf course.  Because we are staying at a golf course in the middle of winter there is only one other guy renting a place in our whole building and the rent is pretty cheap.  The nice thing is that we have a covered garage for the car and snow removal. That means no shovelling!  We have great view of Red Cedar lake and it's nice and quite up here.  Have seen a few bald eagles flying and lots of deer as well.

Winter in Wisconsin


This was the view of what we flew into after spending a week in Georgia...Are we ready for this?!?


I think they are making a little snow hill for skiing in the local Walmart parking lot with all of the snow they have been getting and since the temp. doesn't get above 18-20 degrees it never melts. Maybe we should have brought our snowboards?



This was at the Rice Lake Christmas Parade before our trip. We only lasted about half an hour and most of the people were sitting in their cars watching the parade and the poor, little kids on the floats were frozen! But it sure was fun!


Hello again!
It has been a little while since our last post but we have internet at our condo and so more access to our blog site!
We are back in town after travelling to Colorado and Georgia for Christmas. It was great getting to see everyone and catch up a little bit. What great memories we made both in Colorado and Georgia!
But now it is back to a regular schedule and more adventures up here in the northern woods of Wisconsin...
