Heading Home and getting close in Milwaukee

Today was a great day and a great ride.  I had a feeling that I needed to take things slowly or else I’d run into rain.  So, I sorta followed breaks in the overcast sky early this morning and other than some rods that were still wet, it was great rolling through the luscious country-side.  Lots of hills that I didn’t know existed in south-east MInnesota and hills meant some twisty-windy roads.  Of course I finally succumbed to the need to get to Milwaukee before I tired and so I joined the interstate highway and got to the city early afternoon.  I went first to the ferry terminal to make sure they had my reservation and to ensure I had some idea of how to get there.  They said I should be at the terminal by 5:00 am at the latest.

The hotel had a shuttle service and so I took advantage and had them drive me to the older part of downtown where I could roam around.  I enjoyed the time to just walk around.

Tomorrow, I hit Michigan and I’m looking forward to hitting Ontario shortly after.
