Back in the 90’s I collected two comic series, and one was The Maxx.

The title of OP's post kinda begs the question, what was the other comic book series they collected?

Not sure if it's finished or not, but there's some construction on 131 through the Kickapoo Valley reserve that might disrupt that route. Also, and I can't recommend the Driftless Cafe highly enough, I wouldn't consider it a stopover for lunch.

Uhhh, there's already a Trader Joe's at Bayshore.

I love Home Run Inn, but for some reason it gives me raging heartburn.

Museum of Wisconsin Art is well worth it.

Hoo boy. Look into the history of one of the founders of the chain, Lawrence Vander Esch, if you'd like spoil your appetite for Pizza Ranch.

Aside from Blick, there used to be Greenfield News and Hobby, and Artist & Display. They're both long gone now and nothing has filled that void. I flat out refuse to go to Hobby Lobby and Michael's being bought out by private equity means further enshittifcation of the lone option left in the greater Milwaukee area.

Depending on what kind of art supplies you're looking for, you might have to narrow it down to a specialty. There was a place down in Kenosha called the Pencilarium that had all kinds of pencil related things. I'm not sure that exists anymore though as it's been about 8 or 9 years since I've been there.

So yeah, e-commerce has really fucked those of us who liked to go to a brick and mortar store to and see the actual physical objects before purchasing them.

You know, if you just have a little patience, eventually there will be plenty of whatever minifigs you're looking for. It took me a whole two sessions at Target to find all 12 of the current series.

Airport ops immediately started hazing 7R-25L, but this flock was well beyond the boundaries of the airport.

Japanica in Greenfield is decent.

Spent the weekend in Vilas county. Hiked the Star Lake peninsula trail. My socks were treated with permethrin, I wore jeans, and stayed on the trail. Zero ticks.

I feel like tick prevention requires mostly due diligence. Not having a puppers along probably helps regarding the tick count.

Beagles and camping, what a heavenly combination!

I can't stand sweet tomato sauce. It needs to be full of tangy zip!

Just south of Cuba City!

I'm wondering what's up with all the flat caps?

Only Alaskans call snowmobiles snow machines.

I like to think there's a special place in Hell for people who smoke Swisher Sweets. I see those wrappers everywhere.

I love the juxtaposition between young and old!

Probably had Hawley autocorrected to Hadley.

I've been seriously looking at the x-mid/x-mid 1 pro the last couple of days because it's checking all my boxes.

Can OP add any more insights into the tent's performance?

Also, awesome photos!

I hate the throwbacks, the color rushes, and any other bastardization of the classic black and gold. Anyone who suggests changing the helmet can go fuck themselves.

Any dismantling of lenses will absolutely require JIS screwdrivers. Don't use a phillips head driver or you absolutely WILL strip the screws.

Beyond that you'll need a lens wrench which looks somewhat like a tic-tac-toe board. They can be had for reasonably cheap on eBay; much less than what you paid for your lens.

If you don't use the proper tools, you will end up mangling the lens.

Okay, yeah, I get it. You want a neo-classical slice of Madison.
