Wisconsin is pretty and the asphalt is smooth. They obviously have the same kind of winters as Minnesota, so I'm wondering why the roads are so much better.
I'm in search of unusual cheeses, but haven't spotted any. I did enjoy fried cheese curds at the Main Street Cafe in Bloomer. They also had litany of pies that rival the glorious stuff we had in Montana. As well, there are no "fake" pies like the Saskatoon Berry the Canadians tried to foist upon us. (Saskatoon is just bland blueberry.)
It was the first really hot and humid day of the trip, but otherwise uneventful. I stopped for lunch at Kistner's Korner, run by Jayme. She's a bundle of energy and told tales of past cyclists and snowmobilers that she's gone out of her way to assist. Jayme, don't be surprised if you find a couple of lobsters on your doorstep in a few weeks! If you can't make it to Maine, perhaps I can bring a bit of it to you.
