We will tour one of Dave’s favorite museums, the Great River Road Museum, and have a special tour. Laura Ingalls Wilder Museum and Park are part of our agenda, along with a walking tour of Stockholm, Wisconsinl as well as Riecks Lake along the Mississippi River with its migrating birds, especially tundra swans. Bring your binoculars for a closer look! One of the day’s highlights will be driving to the scenic overlook in Alma, Wisconsin, to view the Mississippi River Valley in all its splendor.
