Kenosha, WI

A couple of weeks ago we visited my cousin Don who lives in Kenosha, Wisconsin, and his mom, my Auntie Pat.  I couldn’t remember visiting Kenosha as a kid, though we often drove from the Chicago suburbs to Wisconsin on one of my Dad’s “drive-abouts”.  Well during our visit this month, the history of Kenosha […]

VACATION!!!
