For Labor Day weekend we went to Door County in celebration of our 3rd anniversary (a little late, but July 30th never seems to be a good time to get away).
On our way up to Door County we passed through a whole lot of rural Wisconsin. It's definitely a different world! We actually saw a Piggly Wiggly- Sweet Home Alabama anybody?
There was also a tractor made out of hay:And of course, we had to document Sheboygan for Uncle Dave.
We stayed in Sturgeon Bay at an old farmhouse turned into a wonderful little bed and breakfast- complete with sheep and chickens!
This is Bryan's sheep face:Shortly after this photo, that plain looking fence you see above shocked the daylights out of me. No warning signs to be found about it being an ELECTRIC fence, just the lingering pain for several hours after. We did not visit the sheep again. Every morning our day started with a basket of pure heaven delivered to our door. There was a different kind of bread or muffin with a fruit arrangement every day. Such a wonderful way to wake up.Here is one of our fancy little fruit concoctions- we named it Strawberry Soup:Three days went by quickly, but there were lots of cute shops and restaurants to eat at...
... bike rides to be had... ... beaches to visit...... scenic overlooks to photograph...
... a Michigan game to watch... ... kayaks to paddle... ... and of course, sunsets to enjoy...
Ahh, the good life....

Awww.... you two are so cute! We're going to have to make it to that tiny little peninsula some day!
Looks like you found a wonderful spot. Other than the results of the Michigan game, looks like it was a perfect weekend!!
So a small little FYI... A friend of my parents was riding on the fast ferry bwt muskegon and wisconsin. He started chatting with a guy on the ferry who owns a ford dealership there in Door... midway through the conversation he told a story. "so you're a golfer? Well the other day a black man came into the dealership and no one jumped up to help him so I went up to see what I could do to help. The man said, I am Tiger Woods and I was hoping to get a F150..." I guess Tiger and his wife are building a house out there and wanted a truck. Buick doesn't make a truck, so he went to Ford... The dealership didn't have what he needed, but a Grand Rapids Dealership did, so the owner hopped the Ferry to drive the car back to Door for Tiger. So if you saw a black loaded F150 with a man looking like Tiger Woods driving, well say hey because not too many other people there knew to recognize him.
we just went to door county too!
You could have just come to the ranch! We don't have any electric fences that will hurt you!!
i love it i love it i love it i love it!
