Wisconsin

I spent the last weekend in northern Wisconsin. Rib Lake to be exact. Now lets back up, my daughter [Lisa] lives there, has for 14 years. She is the food service director at camp Forest Springs. Its a year round Christian camp. You have to be called of God to be there. Its just plan c0ld and snowy. I never go there between Oct. and March, weather is just to nasty for me. I've been there at Thanksgiving -26 wind chill. 25 Th of March 8 inches of fresh snow to go with 12 already on the ground. You get the point. But Lisa needed some stuff for her new house and I needed to get some stuff up for the big sale they have every year in the barn. O ya Lisa has a new boy friend who wanted to talk to me also. So up I went, sure enough its as cold as it has been for 10 years, and record amounts of snow. I'am driving my truck [3/4 ton pickup] gets 13 miles to a gal. 1400 mile trip at $3.10 a gal. do the math. All this for my 35 year old daughter. Don't tell me kids don't keep on costing you. But I'am glad I can do it.
Met her boy friend Mickael hes is a good guy. Loves the Lord and Lisa, can't ask for anymore. He is the same age as her, never been married. So we will see how this all works out. They both want Gods will in there lives so I'am sure it will work out good for both of them.
You have to have a certain mind set to live up there. Lisa was asking someone on staff if the camp would be open on a certain weekend. He just looked at her and said Lisa its only -22 and walk off, several people did show up.
