Day 67 – Osseo to Genoa City WI – 248 miles

It was a lovely day today. We got a decent start at 9:00 today, and after stopping for diesel, we made pretty good time today. We stopped for lunch at a rest area and made it to John and Cheryl’s at 2:30. John was waiting for us in the driveway and directed us to a parking spot. He then gave us a quick tour around the farm. We walked for what seemed forever, but he and Cheryl have done a lot of good work to make the farm pretty impressive. Cheryl had to go pick up a mare and her foal from the vet’s, so she took off. John, Bill, and I sat outside with drinks catching up.

When Cheryl got home, we cooked some steaks to have along with some corn, a tomato and mozzarella salad, and some tortellini. Bill and John watch a movie, and in a little bit, John, Cheryl, and I went to the barn to feed and water the horses for the night. They have about 27 horses, 2 dogs, and 2 cats. Some of the young horses are really sweet! The new Quick farm is out in the country, but they have some woods and a pond, and it is a lovely area to live.
