That is why I was offering to find you a stop over motel on your trips out here. I am just off Lake Winnebago.
Just More of Ken's Nonsense
- Thread starter Ken Anderson
- Start date
Going that route, once I get past Chicago, I feel like I'm home and rarely make another hotel stop, although we did stop in Milwaukee once, staying at a Doubletree across the street from the Harley Museum.
Earlier today:
Night hike, returning at 11:15 pm, 2.7 miles. The wooded section to the north is on a fairly high hill, with a steep climb going up and a similar drop coming out of it at the other end. There is a trail, but there are roots, rocks, and drop-offs, and it was very dark tonight, with little moonlight available. I brought a flashlight, as I always do for night walks, but I like to try to navigate without it.
- Walk to McDonald's: 1.3 miles, and another 1.5 miles back

We walk at night if it’s been stinking hot during the day , but we ovoid the beach as there’s snakes 
out at night , they apparently live in the beach cliffs and feast of rare plovers who nest in the cliffs as well

In this episode, Peter Santellano covers northern Aroostook County, where my camp and land are located. Although I have only just begun watching it, I doubt he'll drive to where my camp is specifically, given that it's an ATV trail. There's some interesting history included, if you're not familiar with the Acadians, who are related to the Cajuns in Louisiana. Unfortunately, here in Maine, they tend to vote Democrat, creating a sliver of blue in the otherwise red Northern Maine.

Another night hike, sticking to the wooded areas wherever possible - 5.3 miles. It is pleasant, cool, and quiet hiking at night this time of year.
