I was there in '95 and it was smoking hot all day every day, and
extremely uncomfortable in the tent at night. Not sure I slept much
while I was there.

The night before we left, a front and storms passed through and the
temperature moderated considerably. We chased the front to the east
the next day through ever clearing weather and managed to get home by
evening.

It was so hot the several days I was there, you worried about leaving
any skin exposed. People would walk by looking like they were about
to drop.

Not much you can do about it but stay out of the sun. Sleeping at
night in the tent was difficult. That's the way the weather goes, it
could be very nice, very rainy or very hot. Or it could be all three
during the time you're there.

I remember that year, and how hot is was. I remember sweat pouring
down from my head and into my eyes and burning. But I had driven from
Milwaulkee, and had a car to go to a hotel in Appleton, so that was
nice to have. Paper Valley Inn. But I checked, and they have just
about doubled their rates from what I paid back then. One year, not
too long ago, I stayed in Omro, and it was okay. At least the A/C
worked. But when you checked in, they ask you if you have a gun, if
you say no, they give you one. Camping is starting to look like a last
resort option only.
