A few of us are hitting up Pepin Wisconsin today. Should be a "swell" time.

Lake Pepin? or the Hatchery?
The only thing missing was a current to carry you back upwind.

Great pic, Pete! Byllesby was awesome, too, with the "magic carpet" fully rolled out.

The swim beach north side of Pepin WI Marina. Lots of beach space. Roped off swimming area in summer but still manageable. Onshore wind.

Nicely done on the hollow log fire. Ours was great but things got a little exciting when it fell over in the middle of our camp. :oops:
