Beautiful day for a roadtrip to southern Wi., Williams Bay to be exact. This BEAUTIFUL yellow popped up on FB marketplace this morning. A few pics were attached and I could tell it was in nice shape. Sent a message to the seller and the wait begins...but only for about 10 minutes. I said I could.be there by 2pm in my original message and seller said that would be perfect. It's a Pat# in 2 thumbs up condition (with a nod to Siskel and Ebert). It lived it's life caddywampus and I took a few pics at the property before I left, Family owned since 1902. This is a BEAUTIFUL spot in southern Wisconsin and 1 street over from the Yerkes Observatory. Perfect spot for a photo op.
