Point of View
Do you have any big summer trips planned, or will you take the staycation route?
We have family who live in Wisconsin, so we will go up to see them. We will do lots of fishing or sleeping in the boat, depending on what’s biting. We will be around Tongie most of the summer to help prepare our kids for their fall seasons, too.”
