Note: The Internet connection here is very weak, so I'll not be adding photos for the next few days.
Knowing that we had a rather short drive ahead we went hiking in the morning at High Cliff, which Ranger seemed to enjoy. By noon we were on the road again.
We traveled about 100 miles to the northwest and are now in
Door County, Wisconsin, near Fish Creek.
For those of you from the east, Door is located on that little peninsula
sticking up from Green Bay in the northeast corner of the state, with Lake
Michigan on one side and Green Bay on the other. We’re at Peninsula State Park, which we visited in June 2012; it is reported to the most popular park in the state. It has a rugged coastline with lots of rocks; the woods are full of birches and various conifers and ferns. All in all, it reminds me of Maine, and it's really a wonderful place.
The weather is October-ish: still overcast, very windy, and
cool. Yesterday’s high was about 60 and
it’s in the 50’s at night. So we loaded
up on firewood for campfires. Having had
a late lunch, we just cooked hotdogs on the fire last night and enjoyed the
evening outside.
