Wed, Aug 29:  Wagon Trail Campground, Rowley’s Bay, WI:  Another cool and cloudy day.  No rain, but only in the mid-60s.  We hung out all morning, and after lunch we ventured out.  Drove into Sister Bay and then continued on to Ephraim to see what’s playing at the drive-in theater.  Yes, there is a drive-in here.  Playing right now is Mama Mia 2 and Mission Impossible 6.  We’d like to see the Mission Impossible movie.  I’ve already seen Mama Mia and Mike has no interest in it.  We continued on to Sunset Park at Fish Creek and sat on a bench enjoying the lake vista.  The two main roads here are Rt 42 on the Green Bay side of the peninsula, and Rt. 57 is on the Lake Michigan side of the peninsula.  The villages on Rt. 42 are Egg Harbor. Fish Creek, Ephraim, and Sister Bay.  The biggest population is in Sister Bay—800 plus.  Fish Creek, Egg Harbor, and Ephraim each have 200+.  Gils Rock boasts a population of 4 people and 2 dogs.  The “quiet side” of the peninsula is on Rt. 57.  We’re over on that side.  Once you get away from Rt. 42 and Rt. 57, it’s a landscape of farms, woods, and orchards.  Back to our site and relaxed the rest of the day.  Mid-60s today.

They call them hedgehogs here.
