I'm in Milwaukee, (great buffet, boring for chips) which is only 90 minutes from MadTown. More than enough going on where you will be, especially if you like college sports.

Since I have been writing road rallies for about 25 years, I have some back road "stuff" if you decide to go for a ride in the country.

Mostly though, you are just a hop down the road from Ho Chunk in Baraboo and a little skip further is Majestic Pines in Black River Falls. If you head off the beaten path, there are more casinos within a couple of hours, round trip, so you can go chip hunting.

Believe it or not, we aren't all (cheese head) farmers in overalls, with a field full of cows.
