These are pictures from my tour around the Wisconsin Countryside stopping at Various Cheesemaking facilities
We visited Sturgeon Bay, Wisconsin and stayed at a resort on the bay, which opens into Green Bay.Had fun with the granddaughters visiting local attractions and was able to shoot from the resort property and nearby Sunset Park.The weather was cool but clear with light winds. Glare and back-lighting from the strong sun presented a challenge. Visit rosy-finch.blogspot.com
Built in 1921, this Renaissance Revival-style building was designed by Claude and Starck for the Castle and Doyle Fuel Company, replacing the former Madison Fire Department Station 2 that had been previously located on the site. The building is clad in terra cotta with decorative motifs, including urns, flowers, and plants, with the pilasters featuring the richest detail highlighted by recessed green glazed backgrounds contrasting with the white reliefs, two doorways flanking a large plate glass window on the first floor with prism glass transoms, the words “Coal Castle & Doyle Coal” over the doors and first floor window, a band of decorative geometric trim below the second floor window sill, one-over-one windows on the second floor, a wave motif above the second floor windows, a cornice with greek key and egg and dart motifs, and a stepped parapet enclosing a low-slope roof. The building is a contributing structure in the State Street Historic District, listed on the Wisconsin State Register of Historic Places.
These images were made during a journey down Rustic Road 32 in Marinette County on June 24, 2017.
R-32, Wisconsin’s longest rustic road, offers a 37-mile journey through several county parks and the Peshtigo River State Forest. The route features multiple species of hardwoods and conifers, along with numerous granite boulders and outcroppings. R-32 also offers vistas of the Thunder and Peshtigo rivers.
Wisconsin's Rustic Roads system was created to preserve many of the state's scenic, lightly traveled country roads. Features of Rustic Roads include rugged terrain, native vegetation and wildlife, or open areas with agricultural vistas.
