Roscoe’s Birthday!!!

We arrived in Sheboygan yesterday and will spend at least today and possibly tomorrow here. Yesterday when we arrived at the breakwall, we could see many people fishing along it. These guys had evidently decided to camp there. Personally I don't think I'd sleep very well just worrying about the wind or a big wave coming along and washing me and my little tent into the drink.


The wind has picked up again. Locals have told us that you can pretty much count on a three-day blow once it starts. So far, that’s been pretty accurate.

Yesterday we biked around a bit. With it being the holiday weekend not much is open. Our plan was to go to dinner tonight to celebrate Ross’ birthday but the Italian place he wanted to go to was closed for Labor Day. So we got on the bikes and peddled the 6-mile trip to Piggly Wiggly and back to get something for dinner. It was a nice ride through Sheboygan. The homes are very well maintained and landscaped. It was a cool ride though with temps only in the 60’s and a steady cold breeze. Made us wish we had stocking caps on!

The wind was howling from the Northeast making for a spectacular wave show along the jetty. If those guys still had been camping out by the lighthouse, they would have been washed away.

Fixed the ribs we picked up at the Pig for dinner and watched the movie The A-Team on the TV. Hard to beat Mr. T. (although in the movie he doesn’t wear all the gold chains, hope I didn't ruin it for you)
