Our Wisconsin Adventures!!!
The Northwoods
Time with Trish and Bill at their lake house. Sunset happy hour cruises, lots of laughs and great wildlife sightings. All the spotted fawns we saw were so cute and we even saw a loon and an eagle. I will say however that not everyone appreciated my “amazing” bird calls.
Minoqua
My nephew Jack met us in Minoqua before taking off for Lake Superior. Dinner, gambling and a water ski show with Jack. When was the last time you saw a waterski show??? The Min-Aqua Bats ski club is the oldest continually running amateur water ski show in the US.
And a roadside attraction for all you fishermen!
Apostle Islands National Lakeshore on Lake Superior
We lived in the Midwest for most our lives and never really knew much about this area, Beautiful pine forests and an amazing lakeshore. Unfortunately we had lots of wildfire smoke blowing in from Canada. To see the islands you travel from the quaint town of Bayfield, Wisconsin. Much of the stone for the Chicago Brownstones comes from this area and many furniture companies owned land on these islands as a steady source of wood for their furniture.
Door County
This has always been one of our favorite places. This peninsula is just east of Green Bay on Lake Michigan and is called the Cape Cod of the Midwest. There so many little towns and harbors along the shore and it’s the best Cherry Pie in the world.
Fish Creek is one of our favorites for shopping (Ok, one of MY favorites for shopping). The Peninsula State Park is so picturesque, it even has a little theater under the stars.
Sister Bay: The iconic Al Johnson’s is a Swedish restaurant….loved for it’s food and and the goats on the grass roof.
Egg Harbor and Ephraim…..so pretty!
Madison Area: Time with dear friends ….and a visit to the Madison Farmers Market.
We’re in Chicago now! Our first order of business was to get 8 new tires put on the RV. These were really hard to find because, like everything else, there is a tire shortage. Yippee for us….big bummer for the bank account.
