Northeastern Wisconsin

Queen Anne's Lace



For the last three and a half weeks we have been based in Green Bay, parking at Celebration Church.  We have been visiting with friends we weren't able to see in May and Ty has been volunteering at Church doing landscaping work. In between he comes to get the camera to photograph a flower, bug, tree frog or bird.

We took some side trips to the West Bay Shore and out to Lake Michigan.  Plus the usual stop at Horicon Marsh on the way north.

One more stop at Madison before we head north to Lake Superior,  fall migration and foliage should  be at it's Autumn peak.  Then we will be heading to the Upper Peninsula of Michigan, south through the states to winter in Florida.

Enjoying all of God's creation along the way.
Love & Prayers,
Ty & Ida Baumann
