10 Things I Learned on Vacation

  1. Wisconsin is huge.
  2. Contrary to popular belief, one can go two whole weeks without a phone, email, web browsing, TV, etc. It's true.
  3. Cheezees (aka: Cheesy Poofs, Cheetos, etc.) are the perfect vacation food (unless you're 4 and get queasy while riding up a twisty mountain road...)
  4. I do not sleep well in the car.
  5. The water in Canada is cold, but it really does feel good when you get in. Honest!
  6. Chicago has traffic jams. At 2:30. AM. On Sunday morning.
  7. Apparently I can spend 17 days with my family and not want to kill them.
  8. Mosquito's suck. A LOT.
  9. Strawberry muffins are fabulous (at least those from the bakery in Nestor Fall, Ontario- there's only one-- you can't miss it really).
  10. Dog hair sticks to everything.

Had a great time. Also glad to be back, or at least glad to NOT be in a car.
