Northern WI

Our journey to the north was actually to go to a winery (Woodland Trail), which we actually didn't get to. We went in the opposite direction, but were able to get in some of the state parks up north, so it wasn't a loss. It just means another trip.

As is becoming a custom in our travels we stop at a winery and pick up some wine for mom.
