First stop is Madison, WI for a little Stauffacher time. We went to a Mallards baseball game, the Farmer's Market on the Square, walked State Stree and the Union. Even climbed Bascom Hill.

On to the next state...here we come Indiana. Heather was wonderful enough to pick us up in Kenosha and drive us back to Indiana. Once again Heather and I packed the van to the roof with kids and luggage. They were awesome and everyone took a nap on the way down. We under fire since we had to get Julia to her softball tournament by 5:30. We made it with a few minutes to spare.

Baker decided that he had enough in the car and colored himself like a Smurf.
