Yes - almost literally.  If Wilcox ran through we'd be three blocks
away - yet I feel much, much safer than I ever felt in Tacoma.

I've heard of Green Lake but the rest of them are new to me.  When we
arrived from Washington it marked the 3rd time that I'd ever been in
Wisconsin (and Cindy's 2nd time.)  I'm looking forward to exploring
the southern half of the state by bicycle once I get them unpacked and
we get some free time.

I'm hoping to get out to do some hunting this summer but I'm not
betting on it.  More likely it will have to wait for next summer as by
then most of the place should be unpacked :)
