400 Trail

Yesterday we drove about 15 miles west of Baraboo to explore the 400 Trail. The 400 is an old train track that had been converted to a bike trail in 1993. The Wisconsin 400 State Trail runs from Reedsburg, WI to Elroy in the north following the course of the Baraboo River. Along the way you pass through a few small towns spaced out just enough to provide a restroom or snack when you need one. There are also a few picnic benches along the way. The trail is 22 miles long one way and being an old railway bed, is amazingly straight and flat. It’s perfect for folks who rarely bike or for taking younger children. Experienced biker’s can certainly do the round trip in a day with ample time to explore. Read the rest of this entry »
102

My Car and 2 bank clocks in Baraboo all agreed it was 102 F yesterday. Well, of course we took off for the lake. As we drove down South Shore Rd. the temprature began to drop.. The temp by the lake? 91 F. Oh, how cool and refreshing!!! Not much better today I’m afraid.
