Tracks from some sort of monster

Today TWW took Mrs. TWW on a drive to see the colors of fall. He also thought he'd stop by the Namekagon Barrens Wildlife Area to get some pictures for a new web site he is tinkering with. He promised Mrs. TWW there would be lots of leaves. That was sort of true until they got near the barrens. They don't call the land a barrens for nothing. There is nothing there.

After getting lost on the bumpy sandy roads he then had to deal with a disappointed wife who thought she was in store for a life enrichment experience. Once he got his bearings the whole way back home all he heard was "you drag me into the middle of no where and don't feed me" (quoting MLA who made the words famous 45 years ago on a trip to New York). Well, on the next trip she cannot say it is the worst trip of the marriage or can she?
