Door County

Door County, Wisconsin is that peninsula that sticks up into Lake Michigan. We drove up the east side and back down the west side, stopping at a couple of state parks for walks and caches. Mom had been here in the early 50s with her parents, so she told lots of stories on the way.

Some pretty flowers at the I in Ephraim.


On the trail to a cache.


Can you see the cache?


It's hidden in the log. A girl scout troop maintains this cache. This was my kind of cache. A fairly short walk to an ammo can filled with swag in the woods. I was surprised by the lack of mosquitoes. The weather was beautiful, about 85 degrees and sunny all day.

Horseshoe Island


Many views like this one along the way. The road would go by the lake at some points and back away from the coastline into the woods at others. It was a terrific drive, and I can tick off an item from my "always wanted to do that" list. Drive Door County, Wisconsin, check.
