The Elroy-Sparta Bike Trail Fall 2006, Photo Page 5
Here's a very nice couple from Green Bay Wisconsin. I was careful not to
mention the recent drubbing of the Packers by the Bears. As you can see from the picture,
the license plate on their golf cart reads, "OLDFART". They said they had
permission to use the cart on the trail by the Department of Natural Resources (DNR). They
were going up and down the trail having a good time. They even brought their Yorkie with
them. Mr Old Fart told me how the gates to the tunnels are closed in November and that
there are trails that go up and over the hills. He said that when the trains were in
existence, they had 2 engines, one in the front and one in the back. The one in back was
called the pusher. The amount of smoke generated by 2 engines must have been enormous.
Boy! Can old people talk! Ah well... I guess my day is coming soon enough...
One of the few blooming flowers of the fall, taken just off of Logan Road.
Dairy and farmland, plus rolling hills about 2.5 miles west of Tunnel
#1.
