Madison area

We do not travel “fast” we travel ‘deep” this way instead of  spending a lot of time on the roads we spend time “living” the area what gives us a chance to meet people and explore the place before we move our 5W to a new location, we entered Wisconsin from Michigan on 8 August (can we get residency???)saw a lot but there is still many places to explore.

During one week in a C.G close to Madison we covered a lot of grounds:

We visited the Capitol,a beautiful building a lot of history,but it looked more than a museum than a place that people come to work…

The weather was just perfect to explore the Capitols surroundings,lakes and parks.

The Governor Dodge S.P is a huge nice park although the fall was almost dry this time of the year but still the beach and the hikes were great

On Saturday we went down town to see the Farmers Market that took place around the Capitol Square ,it was one of the biggest I ever saw.

I think that is an excellent way to travel. We like getting to know the area and the people as well.
