Oak Creek Historical Society

In mid June we visited the Oak Creek Historical Society. For a small place, it seemed well done. I'm used to some of the bigger places so I was hoping that the volunteers would be in each building describing things. We did at least find information on and inside the buildings so that was helpful.... Continue Reading →

Basilica of St. Josaphat

Something we did in early June was to see a local historical landmark: The Basilica of St. Josaphat. It was cool in its own weird way. Everything was painted. The walls that look like marble, are just painted to look like marble. The mosaics, same thing, just painted, not really mosaics. That said, it still... Continue Reading →

Green Bay Botanical Garden

If I were doing these in order, this would be posted before the post about Lambeau Field. But it's not in order, so I'm posting it now. 😉 We had some time before our tour began for Lambeau Field, so we headed over to the Green Bay Botanical Garden. It's not bad for botanical gardens....

WI Bucket List #44

44. wear a cheesehead with pride Since we were at Lambeau field, why not get this bucket list item out of the way too? Well, sorta. I wasn't going to buy a cheesehead. Nor did I feel comfortable about putting one on in the store. So this is as good as it gets.

WI Bucket List #1

Mainly, we hate crowds. I understand this place is packed when it's game time. The stadium can hold up to... Continue Reading →

Effigy Mounds – South Unit

This post on the Effigy Mounds will be done in two parts. The first part is the south unit. It's the first part of the park we visited. We went back at a later date to see the North Unit, however, I plan to have it posted next week. There is a lot of information... Continue Reading →

WI Bucket List #67

67. watch the majestic bald eagles soar over the Wisconsin River So this is a stretch (I mean a real stretch) to really count this as a bucket list item. However, I'm going to do it anyway. We were near the Prairie du Chien area in late May. This is where the Wisconsin river meets... Continue Reading →

Delavan’s Circus

For lack of a better something to call this post, I'm calling it Delavan's Circus. To back up a little, Wisconsin appears to have a big circus history. We actually visited Baraboo, WI a couple years back and did the circus museum they have there. You can view that post here if you like. Anywho...I... Continue Reading →
