Day 40: The day began with a transaction from Jo's ATM in Doolittle Park, Birchwood, WI. A short ride day to Hayward, WI for Kevin and Alan. We caught up to them for lunch at the B-D Cafe where "friends meet to eat" (so we did), and afterwards we saw cute little round carrots at the farmers market in the parking lot. After choosing a camp site at the KOA in Hayward, WI, we went into town. Kevin wanted to check out the New Moon ski shop where I bought new carbon-lite x-country ski poles at 60% off (been looking for a good deal for over 5 yrs - yay). We arrived at the Fresh Water Fishing Hall of Fame and Museum at 3:40pm. Online it said it closed at 4:00pm. Online it failed to mention that there is "no admittance to the museum after 3:30pm". Bummer! So we took pictures from behind the security fence. Since we couldn't get into the museum it was too early for dinner so we had afternoon adult beverages at the Moccasin Bar, which has some freaky fun dioramas. The bartender recommended the fish fry (the Friday night fish fry seems to be a common Wisconsin thing) at the Trailways Inn and Supper Club (he said it was just two miles away). So off we went ... we finally got there eleven miles later ... we were ready to participate in the all you can eat Friday night fish fry! Happy full bellies! by Jo
