Earlier this fall, we took a road trip up to Door County, meandering up the peninsula….
stopping along the way to hike ,
here, overlooking Lake Michigan…. where we could see Michigan in the distance,
…and here where we appreciate the pebbly beach,
and where I appreciated a very cute boy at the beach:
….. we hiked in a bright yellow woods,
that smelled like the UP forests,
and gave us a glimpse of a deer:
the next day, we took the ferry to washington island…
we explored the island, starting first with a delightful coffee shop, and proceeding to a few small hikes. it seems that northern Wisconsin has an affinity for building wooden towers to take in the views.
we are not the type is disregard such affinities…. the view from the Washington Island tower:
…it was a bit blustery there,
we continued our explorations, surprised to learn that the island had a stave church, of all things… bringing back fond memories of our Norway trip.
we hiked around a bit more….
and Adam took this pretty tree picture,
then we headed back to Madison…..
I have only heard about Door county and seen it in all but one picture so far. I was told, by reliable sources, to expect excellent quality wine from this area but you guys have narrated it so well that I must now take a tour myself – hopefully soon.
Picture of Adam that you took is nice and so is of you that Adam took. You look like…. you look like…. you look like….
a serial killer? that’s why you shouldn’t cross me
but seriously, door county is really fun and beautiful… i guess it is pretty crazy in the summer, but when we visited it was pretty low key and not very crowded.
serial killer? why would I think of you that way?? are you implying that iI am (totally) out of my mind and have lost capacity to think straight???
I was thinking more along the lines of Diane Keaton or Meryl Streep.
But I am scared of you now…
not at all – but think of what my scariness has done for you – prompted you to submit photos to contest and more scariness soon to prompt you to get that photo book out.
I know – I am thankful for your scariness honestly. How does Adam manage, … wondering, just wondering….
