Yesterday John and I started our day with a trip to Wheels and Sprocket in Delafield to drop off our bikes for an annual tune up. From there we went to the Care Center to visit John's dad. We took him a hand held poker game. On our last visit, Jack had stated that he missed his old hand held games, but he didn't think he could push the small buttons. John and I found a site that sells things especially for Seniors, things that have bigger buttons, well lit, large screens, and easy on and off. We found a perfect poker game and he was busy playing it the whole time we were visiting. Hopefully that well keep him occupied during his long days.
We had a picnic lunch at Frame Park even though the weather was cool and damp. After lunch, we took a walk to our old stompin' grounds, Carroll University (altho we still refer to it as Carroll College). It is always fun to return and check things out.
Next we walked toward downtown and stopped at the turtle effigy mound. Then we headed back to Frame Park and finished up with the two mile trip around the park on the Riverwalk.When all was said and done, we had walked 5.25 miles.
And best part is, we burned off our lunch.

I call it Carroll College too from all the stories Alissa tells or maybe you tell. I didn't even notice the sign said University.
