Day 6 Plainfield, IL to Wisconsin Dells, WI

This morning was another beautiful morning. We headed toward Sun Prairie, WI via farm roads and back country. The morning was beautiful and we enjoyed tree lined roads, rolling hills, and green pastures as we drove into Wisconsin.

We ended the morning for a lunch stop at The Angell Park Speedway. The Midget Car Hall of Fame is located at this track.

For most midget car racing has little meaning. However, for me I know it is why racing is in my blood. My grandfather was Matthew Heid. He was a midget car racer, and sadly was killed racing when my mom was a young girl. Visiting the Hall of Fame reminded me why I love racing and competition.

After lunch we transit to our next starting point each day. The picture above was taken after leaving lunch at the track. Shanna is an awesome navigator and Neil a great driver. They have finished in the top ten the last couple of years.

We finished the day a little earlier than usual. We ended the day in Wisconsin Dells, the mecca for indoor water parks. We stayed at a resort called Chula Vista Resort. The place was huge with indoor and outdoor water slides. It was located on a beautiful tree lined river. There was a walking path behind the hotel along the River, and an old log cabin tucked in the trees very close to our room.

Thank you to McCollister’s for the care package. It came at the perfect time. We went from 100 degrees down to high 50s.

Thank you to Mustang Country, Jane finished another day. The race prep on Jane has been perfect.

Thank you to all of our family, friends and supporters. We continue to stay in the top 10!
