Stinkers Bay

We met up with our BFFs Joel and Shontel and their son Nathan in Wisconsin for a relaxing weekend on the lake. However, Stinkers Bay didn't quite do it for us. The "cabin" that was so wonderfully described to us on http://www.vrbo.com/ (watch out you vacationers!) was just an old double wide with nothing but dampness inside (and I'm being nice). It was quite the memorable weekend and we are thankful our friends are so chill!


We did go to Madison one day and enjoyed the "Taste of Madison" treats downtown, and also enjoyed a fun boat ride around the lake, which included swimming in the dreaded water. Once you were in, you could not see your body or limbs... YIKES! There were pretty sunsets and the fish were jumping like crazy... I guess they were feasting on the misquitos who were feasting on us!!

Our double wide on Stinkers Bay- we found out the name of the bay after renting a boat with a map. Definitely lives up to its name though!!

The lake was up 4 feet because of flooding (ummm, yes there was standing water around our trailer) which made for pretty pictures in the evening.

Our boat - which was a place of comfort and luxury after a weekend in the trailer.

Joel making fire. Good thing we had planned on using the fire to cook dinner as there was no oven!! What?!

The beautiful VanderLugt family that we cherish for making our vacation weekend a fun one!
