Entry #26: Final week in Wisconsin and fly fishing extravaganza.

Week 26: Donald wraps his last Wisconsin week before a Friday departure for Montana, coming off his highest-mileage summer week and a deload so he can show up fresh at MSUB. He is tying his own flies (turkey feathers and dog hair), packing the Nissan, and posted a community-meet warm-up comedy skit. No letter next weekend while traveling.
