A Trip to the Land of the Cheeseheads

Monday was an exceedingly rare day of decent weather here in northern Illinois, so we took a trip to Wisconsin to view some fall color.

First stop was Lake Geneva where we did see color near the downtown. Then, it was a drive around the lake. There were some areas of color but mostly not. We figure peak color is a week away, so will get back next week.

Took the drive along Snake Road (drive it and you'll understand the name) west of Lake Geneva off Wi-50. This is classified as a Wisconsin Rustic Road. If there is a prettier drive anywhere, I'd like to know. Color was so-so, but the drive, as always, was fantastic.

Took I-43 from Elkhorn to Mukwanago and went to three new (to us) NTN sites: Boneyard Pub, Half Time and Double Ds. The first two were of the sports bar variety, but Double D's was very unique and a place we'd go back to visit next time in the area.
