The day started out rainy. This was the first time we have had to prepare the rig for the road with it wet and raining. David killed up on the roof to wipe the water off the slide roofs before we pulled them in so we would not get water in the Wanderer. The drive down to La Crosse was gray and misty with small showers here and there. But was otherwise uneventful. We pulled into the Goose Island County Campground ($33 per night, no sewer) around 3 PM. The campground is situated on the Mississippi river about 5 miles south of La Crosse, WI. It’s a nice campground but only has 3 back in spots that could handle our rig (No pull through sites). Backing in was a bit tight but we made it. The gravel pad was fairly level. Unfortunately there was a big tree that blocked our Direct TV but we could pick up enough local channels from the digital antenna to keep us up to date. But there are a LOT of Mosquitoes!! They even get into the Wanderer when we step out the door. We went into town and ate dinner at the Fiesta Mexican restaurant that had good review on line. We should have known better. We broke a cardinal rule, don’t eat Mexican food north of Oklahoma!!! It was very bland food but at least was fresh. Then it was off to Wally World to stock up.
