Peninsula State Park has lots of hiking trails, many of which connect to each other. Yesterday's hike had us starting in the Nicolet Beach parking lot, wandering past the old Vita Course, passing through Tennison Bay campground and kayak launch, checking out the lighthouse and its amazing view, and popping onto Sunset Trail to make our way past the boat launch and back to our trusty old Subaru.

Reminder that a Wisconsin State Park sticker (vehicle admission pass) is required for all motor vehicles entering Wisconsin State Parks, Forests, and Recreation Areas.

Cute shop alert! If your Door County exploration takes you to the Gills Rock/Hedgehog Harbor area, be sure to visit Hill House for a one of the most charming shopping experiences around. If you time your visit right, you may witness the Monarch butterflies taking a shortcut through the shop's open windows!

Their website sums up the shop perfectly: "The shop is an ever-changing collection of practical housewares, textiles, treasures new and old, souvenirs, knick-knacks, snacks, treats, and whatever else catches our eye."

Location: 12740 Hwy 42, Gills Rock, WI

We stopped at **ery yesterday to pick up our W**e Club selection. While we were there, we checked out their beautiful patio update.

Tucked away on 30 acres in the heart of Door County, family-owned Simon Creek is the largest vineyard property in Wisconsin. In addition to their award-winning w**es, they offer live music; b**r, cocktail, and bourbon taps; a nice selection of w**e-pairing snacks; a comfortable lounge area (complete with games;) and a little corner to shop for fun w**e-inspired gifts.

Plan a visit to Simon Creek on your next trip to Door County or consider their indoor or outdoor spaces for an upcoming event. It's a beautiful spot.

A rare day in Baileys Harbor - it was almost 90 degrees! We beat the heat with a cold drink (and a "small" onion loaf) in the shade at Coyote Roadhouse, enjoyed the walk-in cooler at Waseda Farms, waded in the refreshing water of Kangaroo Lake, and savored Gelato from Harbor Frozen Custard. On our way back to Three Little Birds, we cut across to TR Pottery in Fish Creek and enjoyed the shopping as well as the lovely setting. A very good day all-around!
