+David, Nancy, and Blaise spent some time enjoying the outdoors of Southern Wisconsin the weekend of October 16th, 2020. +
+ ++On Friday Night David and Nancy camped at Yellowstone Lake State Park near Blanchardville. +The campsite was nicely laid out with good privacy from adjacent campers, but there were some challenges. +It was very cold and their tent and sleeping bags were not good enough to keep warm. +A dog somewhere in the campsite area was barking for hours and adjacent campers made some noise. +Blaise arrived at the campsite early next morning for breakfast. +
++The family drove from the state park to the Brooklyn Segment of the Ice Age Trail. +Like the day before, they drove on many small county roads which were very rural. +On this trip they saw an Amish man harvesting his crops using 6 donkeys and an old fashioned harvesting machine. +
+ ++They arrived at the southern end of their planned hike, had a stand up lunch and then drove to the northern end of the planned hike. +It was only a 6 mile hike but they planned to do a short piece on Saturday and the remainder on Sunday, camping at a designated camping are on the trail Saturday night. +
+ ++The hike to the camping site was nice weather wise and scenery wise but did have some strong wind. +The campsite is on the top of a hill referred to as "birthday hill" by locals. +After they set up camp they had an early dinner and tried to retire very early (5:00 pm ish). +
++At 8:00 pm they were not able to sleep for the night, having just taken a semi nap. +Further the weather was surprisingly mild, but about to get very bad in the early morning. +So they broke up the camping stuff and hiked the remaining 4 miles in the dark before escaping to Madison. +
