Location
New development on the north side of Portage, WI. From the satellite images on Google Earth, it looks to be in somebody's front yard.
Participants
Bill Minser and the Not-Napping Toddler
Expedition
This was a last minute hash attempt. I had hoped to spend my Saturday doing something productive but the toddler decided not to nap. So I threw her, a bag of Cheerios and the GPS in the car and headed north. Oh, and I printed a sign.
The plan: toddler falls asleep during the 45 minute drive north. Drive by the spot, take some pictures, plant the sign in some poor sot's front yard, find pie.
Actual implementation: no nap, front yard found easily, no one around but lots of cars in driveway, pictures from car, jump out-plant sign-jump in-drive away, find park with slides for toddler.
The real fun: on the drive back, we side-tracked to a public beach at Lake Wisconsin. Toddler and father waded and splashed and dug our heels into the sand.
