298.1

The trip was better than I expected. On the way down, we stopped for lunch at Culvers. Normally, this would be a double cheeseburger, curds, and frozen custard for me. I had the grilled chicken, mashed potatoes, and no custard. So far so good.

We arrived in the Dells and the food was abundant. My step-mother had a big batch of meatballs. I dove right in. Then we swam and climbed stairs.  And swam, and climbed stairs. It was more activity than I have had for a while.  Dinner was baked ham with bread and cheesecake (we didn't plan sides well). I only had one piece of cheesecake.

The next day, pancakes and bacon for breakfast. I had 3 strips of bacon and 3 pancakes.  Then more swimming. Later, we stopped at an overpriced candy shop and I got a coconut haystack.  It was just one, but it was about 4 inches tall.  I wasn't disappointed with the choice. For lunch, I did order more than I should have--a couple of sandwiches and a side of fries.  Dinner was also a bit excessive, but I reined it in much faster than normal.

I will count that as the better choice.
