According to that "political" site's Contest Calendar sign-up page, 26 people are signed up so far, including Larson, Pederson, Lavin, Bobby T, the Yerke Bros., the Cosmic Avengers :-) and yours truly. I'ma try to get PG to make the trip up there with me, too.

If anyone is interested (and I know you are)

I am getting my Priceline bids accepted for all my rooms on this trip for $50.00 a night in 3-Star hotels. Downtown Louisville on the way up, downtown Madison for the weekend and downtown Chicago (the Sheraton north of the river) on the way home.

If you haven't got a room yet they are going dirt cheap in really fine hotels. $323.08 total for five nights. (I know, $50 x 5 is $250. Well, taxes on each room is averaging $14 a night.)

One week from today!!!!! They only went as far out as Friday on this morning's weather forecast, but it's supposed to be sunny and mid-70's. Let's all hope and pray it lasts all weekend!

The orange barrels are going up on Main St. I was really hoping they could hold off on that until after the Wiggle War. What's one more week, right? But that shows how much influence I have at city hall. Not at all like Lenny, who got the city of Ashland to repave a whole downtown city block for his race. Lenny is my hero. It's only for a couple blocks right as you get off highway 151. No where near where we will be racing.

Here is are some addresses to help you GPS or Google Map your way:
--- My house is at 1708 Rustic Dr, Sun Praire, WI, 53590
--- Saturday morning's race is at 301 Blankenheim in Sun Prairie, WI, 53590
--- Saturday afternoon's race is at the intersection of S. Walker Way and Claremar in Sun Prairie, WI, 53590
--- Sunday morning's race is at the intersection of Muskett Ridge and Harvest Ln in Sun Prairie, WI, 53590

The Saturday morning race is right at the Colonial Club Senior Center. They are the charity that all your entry fees go to support. They are also having a 5K and 10K run Saturday morning that kicks off at 6:30. So by the time we get there, there are already thousands of people there, and parking is scarce. Add a little extra time to park and walk the last few blocks.

My wife's number 1 hobby is cooking and baking. She totally looks forward to the Wiggle War every year to practice her craft. The Saturday night bar-b-que is the stuff legends are made of, and is not even close to being merely a "bar-b-que". It is a FEAST of epic, epicurian proportions. I have heard the menu plans, and she will be busy all week getting this one together. The Mangelsdorf house is a smoke-free, alcohol-free environment, but you will NOT want to miss this feast!

I can't wait to see you all. If you need it, my cell phone number is 608-630-0184. I trust you completely to not give it out to strangers. 8-)

To those of you planning on pitching a tent in the backyard: I promise to scoop all the dog poo Friday afternoon. When she wakes up in he morning she needs to go out and "water the grass", so you may be wakened by a small black lab named Cassi sniffing around your tent. She barks, but is harmless. I swear.

The results were entered a little too late to be included in the June rankings. But they will be included in the next calculation.
