February Vacation?

Often for the school conferences break in February, we have made a trip to the Dells.  Well, I was not up for that this year.  Too many people and not enough masks! Instead, I convinced Troy that we could just stay at a hotel and swim there.  Usually no one but kids like to swim in hotel pools.  And in Belmont, WI, who would actually be staying at a hotel?

So off we went on our vacation...to Belmont.  We stopped at a couple of cheese stores on the way.  Troy stopped, I browsed, and the kids waited in the car!  Next time, however, Teresa wants to come in and by the marshmallow peanut butter spread!  We also stopped by the roadside marker that declares Belmont as the first capital of WI.
Then it was onto the hotel.  We had some subway for dinner and then hit the pool.  The pool was warm!  We later found out the lady working the front desk had cranked up the heat the week before for some guests.  There is no hot tub, so she was trying to make the pool nice!

We swam again in the morning after breakfast.  Breakfast was tasty waffles!  The front desk lady let us stay past check out.  We left around 12pm for home.  It was a wonderful break and vacation for all of us.  Simple, but lots of fun!
