What the Dell are we doing here??!!!!????

Finally Dave got some time off work and we took the trailer for it's first true break in camping trip. We have heard so many things about the Wisconsin Dells so we headed over.

HMMMMMM What can I say....

So let's start at the beginning. The night before we left I mentioned that we had not heard the owls for sometime and it would be nice if they came to wish us well. Surprise surprise surprise (say it in true Gomer fashion) they wer hooting up a storm. I am trying to upload a video but have such a slow connection here it may not work so you will have to trust me!! Yeah it worked....no visual and turn your volumn up.




Here we are all loaded and ready to head out. Not too sure if we have enough toys or not!?

Along the way we passed this wind turbine farm....how do they work with NO wind? I understand that the wind will blow and the props will turn and before they can generate enough power to pay for themselves they will need to be replaced!! What a waste.

We arrived at the Dells, Arrowhead campground and resort and set up camp. Today it called for rain but we loaded into the truck to see what this place was all about. Not sure what to expect as we headed in. Drove around a little looking for a public launch, there are supposed to be three!! Found a break in the trees and saw this.
Then the true nature of the Dells was exposed!!! I use the term NATURE in the loosest sense of the word!!! In all fairness if we had know what a tourist trap this really was we would never have paid for 4 nights here. The entire area is NOTHING and I mean NOTHING but water parks and Ripley's, and haunted houses and god knows what else. I am thinking we need to see the upside down White House, before we leave though!!!

Late in the morn the sky's turned on us and it started to rain....maybe duck boats tomorrow. And we are hoping to throw the kayaks in the hopes that once off the main street there is some beauty here.

OK, I am really bad but I couldn't help myself... seriously...who names a bar this???? Sorry, I am so asshamed ( and yes I know how I spelled it) of myself .


Back to the trailer for the evening and hopefully we can entertain our selves with some books, puzzles and the puter. Maybe we can research the area and find a place without 100 waterparks!!

The real fun is just being with family.
