Army Ducks

Bill & Donna are in the Dells area for a couple of days. Yesterday we all rode the Army Ducks on the lower dells of the Wisconsin River.

There are two duck companies that provide rides on land and water in the Wisconsin Dells area. These amphibious machines are surplus from WWII, built in 1945.

Here we are entering the river. Once in the water, the wheels are disengaged and the propellers are engaged to move us around. Once we are ready to go back on land, the process is reversed.

No matter how many times I see the sandstone cliffs along the river, I am amazed by the beautiful scenery; the awesome green of the trees, the color variations of the sandstone, the uniqueness of the area. It is a beautiful part of the country.

Thanks for coming to see us, Bill & Donna. We loved showing our "summer home" to you.
