Twelfth Stop - Chippewa Falls, WI

Chippewa Falls, WI - Only a little more than 1,100 miles north of the DFW metroplex lies Chippewa Falls, WI. You can make it in about 18 hours by car, if you don't make too many stops on the way.

Now, why would make drive back to San Francisco via Wisconsin? You have to get really creative to consider it to be "on the way". Well, we have three words for you: Kathleen, John, and ... wait for it ... wait for it ... yes, yes ... close, close ... here we go: CHESTER!


We stayed a few days at Jennifer's house camping in the basement to avoid cat allergies. What we thought might be a tough few days due to the winter weather turned out to be a very pleasant, action packed stay with visits to UWEC, a double shot of the Leinenkugel Brewery, ATVing (oh yes, more goosebumps), a virtual plane ride from Minneapolis to Chippewa Falls, home made Spagetti (finally, finally, we were able to cook again), and lots of love and home cooked meals from Kathleen and John.


Now, it is time for Frizi and Chester to go on a diet again. The "Meow Mix Days" are over.
