I’m staying far, far away from Wisconsin. No Johnson control for me. I’m goin’ to Oklahoma instead. I like Barbeque a lot.

Dirtscratch, the population of Oklahoma is largely Germanic [boomer sooners], you will find BBQ and also such German treats as good beer.. Also on the border, Texas side, you will find quaint German towns, even in West, Texas, New Braunfels, enjoy the river and the folk.

Barton springs is also a great place to rent an innertube and traverse the cool waters with family and friends.

Damn! BBQ and good beer, too!! If it gets any better I might just need that “Johnson Control” after all!

Dirtscratch, also check out the Frio river. Nice cabins, cold water and you can tote the beer cooler behind your flotation device. =)
