Last Friday's return from Minneapolis, MN to Milwaukee, WI went fine.

One thing I learned was to eat a frosty (Wendy's chocolate ice-cream treat) ASAP.  I made the mistake of setting it down and a bit later discovered it had tipped over and spilled into my crate-container (Frozen chocolate on a warm day melts rather quickly!).  I really enjoyed cleaning that mess up.  Not!

Today, was a beautiful drive up the UP.  Along the way in Kohler, WI, there is a H-U-G-E American flag erected by the Acuity Insurance company (Headquarters) right off of I-43.  You don't know how big that flag and flag pole is until you're right beside it.  You can see it a couple of miles away.  Today the wind was arranging the Stars and Stripes in a magnificent wavy pattern.  God bless America!

On the way up, I stopped at a McDonalds and grabbed a chef salad to eat later on in Marquette, MI.  Those aren't bad!

Tomorrow, I'll deliver 4-stops and be home for supper--to celebrate my son's 7th birthday!  Last evening and today they both had fevers and were not feeling good at all.  Hopefully, they'll both be feeling great tomorrow.  Come to think of it, hopefully I will be feeling great tomorrow as well!

miles driven today = 298

miles driven last Friday = 345
miles driven last week = 2,447
