We’re here so that LotStreetWiz can swim/bike/run the Wisconsin Ironman. Various offspring are holding the fort at home.
This time, we drove the short way: through Sarnia and Flint, past Detroit, through Chicago around the southern tip of Lake Michigan, west across the tip of Illinois and north to Madison.

We did the long route in June.
We drove all day across the very glaciated landscape of the Great Lakes area. Along the way I noted various science attractions, such as a Museum of Archaeology in Michigan, a Glacial Lakes and Drumlins park, Rock Cut State Park, and a bog state park.
We were on the road for 13 hours so I’m going to get some sleep. We are staying at the Staybridge Suites in East Madison.
