For the long Memorial Weekend, I set out to explore some local state parks, natural areas, and monuments. I originally intended to leave Friday after work, but heavy rains changed my plans. Instead, I woke early and started driving with no […]
This past weekend, the weather finally graced us with temps around 70, sunny skies, and dry grounds. Took a day trip up to Kettle Moraine State Forest—Southern Unit for some much needed hiking. On the suggestion of a park ranger, decided […]
