think it only took
one session for our
new docent Dave Zuleger to learn it all. In my case its been ten
years and...well, nice try but no cigar.

What I do know is that in Fall 2013 the Museum looked really

good. We were excited the next Spring when we went back to
our regular school tours and summer schedule. We thought we
were all set for at least a decade, but just in case, I continued to
raise money. Good thing. Within a year the coating on the log
exterior began checking and peeling. By 2015 some logs were
almost entirely exposed. Bob called MLH (Mountain Log
Homes); Jessie came over to take a look. His assessment: our
contractor had used the wrong product. We had two choices:
watch the building fall to ruin once again or remove the coating
and put on the right stuff. Cost: $7300. Since we had the money,
we bit the bullet and plunged ahead.

Bad News. Really bad news. During a process similar to sand-

blasting, several logs cratered: they were already rotten inside. I
am not kidding when I say I was physically ill when I saw that.
Jesse estimated that an additional $20,000 would be needed to
fix everything. Legal recourse was not an option (long story) so I
went back to begging. Thanks to Larry Paphlam, Marcia
Wahoske, the Kindt Foundation, and the WPS Community Foun-
dation, we got just enough to do the required repairs. MLH did a

All proceeds from this event will go directly into maintaining and
improving the Snowmobile and ATV trails in the Townsend area.
Red Arrow is responsible for about 65 miles of snowmobile trail
and about 15 miles of ATV/UTV trails including the Nicolet

A Word or Two From Dr. Adam
Preventing Travel Aches and Strains
Traveling can be rough on the body. Whether you are traveling
alone, on business or on your way to a sunny resort with your
family, long hours in a car or on an airplane can leave you
stressed, tired, stiff and sore.
Warm Up, Cool Down
Treat travel like an athletic event. Warm up before settling into a
car or plane, and cool down once you reach your destination.
Take a brisk walk to stretch your hamstring and calf muscles.
In an Airplane
Stand up straight and feel the normal S curve of your
spine. Then use rolled-up pillows or blankets to main-
tain that curve when you sit in your seat. Tuck a pillow
behind your back and just above the beltline and lay
another pillow across the gap between your neck and
the headrest. If the seat is hollowed from wear, use fold-
ed blankets to raise your buttocks a little.
Check all bags heavier than 5 to 10 percent of your body
weight. Overhead lifting of any significant amount of
weight should be avoided to reduce the risk of pain in
the lower back or neck. While lifting your bags, stand
right in front of the overhead compartment so the spine
is not rotated. Do not lift your bags over your head or
turn or twist your head and neck in the process.
When stowing belongings under the seat, do not force the
object with an awkward motion using your legs, feet or
arms. This may cause muscle strain or spasms in the
upper thighs and lower back muscles. Instead, sit in
your seat first, and using your hands and feet, gently
guide your bags under the seat directly in front of you.
While seated, vary your position occasionally to improve
circulation and avoid leg cramps. Massage legs and
calves. Bring your legs in, and move your knees up and
down. Prop your legs up on a book or a bag under your
seat.
Do not sit directly under the air controls. A draft can in-
crease tension in neck and shoulder muscles.
Travel by Car
Adjust the seat so you are as close to the steering wheel as
comfortably possible. Your knees should be slightly
higher than your hips. Place four fingers behind the
back of your thigh closest to your knee. If you cannot
easily slide your fingers in and out of that space, you
need to re-adjust your seat.
Consider a back support. Using a support may reduce the
incidence of low-back strain and pain. The widest part
of the support should be between the bottom of your rib
cage and your waistline.
Exercise your legs while driving to reduce the risk of any
