Door County Wisconsin: What to do, see and eat!

July 7, 2017 by Lori Leave a Comment

Cherries.

I know that’s what you thought of when you read the title. We’re on the same page. It’s what I also thought of when we found out we’d be visiting Door County, Wisconsin for a trip with extended family.

It turns out it’s probably a good thing the trip took place in August and not earlier in the summer. I fear this entire post would have been cherry heavy. As luck would have it, though, when you visit outside of cherry season, well, you have to find other things to do.

The Lavender Ranch in California | Chico Road Trip | The 3 Star Traveler

This Chico, California road trip had been a long time coming. Its place of origin just happened to change from the time we decided we should go, until the time we actually got around to doing so.

We started thinking about it when we were still living in the Bay Area. Leave it to us to move even further away to finally hit the road, ultimately for good beer. That didn’t discourage us though, all that changed was where we were coming from, a few extra miles on the road.
