Way safer than the west side.

there are just a couple of places to eat.

whatever you do, don’t take highway 26.

(actually i am fairly sure you already know. just making sure. i used to live west of Fond du Lac)

the whole 140 miles of it. Deer, tractors, semi trucks and the Rosendale cop.

Either 151 from Waupun to Fond du Lac
or
Hwy M from Waupun straight north to 44. Slower, generally safer and more scenic.

or further west, multiple fun roads.

The rain/snow garbage going on now shouldn't knock the leaves off. Dress warm-we are cold this weekend.
