Our attendance at the Caxton Club Symposium, held this year at the University of Wisconsin Madison, gave us an excuse for an early spring retreat to America’s dairy farmland in southwestern Wisconsin. Unfortunately, Mother Nature was not in a tranquil mood and we had to cut the trip short when we saw that the storms that had been battering the Midwest were forecast to continue all week. Nonetheless, the symposium was a great success and the time away was a welcome break.
