The only downside of the trip is that it was in fact to RACINE, not exactly
the most scenic world attraction.
Actually, Racine's harbor is now as beautiful as any I've visited.
They've spent millions of dollars obliterating any trace of their
industrial past -- at least along the lakeshore. With the man-made
peninsula, and a now-thriving downtown, it's not at all the pit it was
when I was a kid. (Think coal piles and green water...)
Now, drive ten blocks inland, and you'd better have your body armor on
-- but that's true of every formerly-industrial city in America.
And thanks for the offer! We'll be back to see you next summer, I'll
bet, assuming Milwaukee throws another airshow?
