Autumn in Wisconsin

On a beautiful Sunday, about a week or so ago, Bob & I took a ride to view the autumn colors.


We went to Holy Hill about an hour away from town. We happened to get there just as a Mass was ending and a massive crowd of visitors were following a priest in a procession.

I believe the priests and his altar boys were marching along the paths where many grottos are nestled in the hills. The choir was singing while they walked by.

Here is a view from atop the Holy Hill road.

And another..

As much as I dread the cold weather that is approaching us, there is nothing more spectacular than Wisconsin's Autumn!!

Visitors from Alaska

My Aunt Sophie & her daughter, Therese are visiting Milwaukee for a few days. I decided to join them for a little tour of downtown.



Here they are, along with my aunt Sylvia and cousin, Dolores, standing on the balcony of the Discovery Museum. Skylight of the city behind them.

A prety view of Lake Michigan.

After the museum they wanted to visit and shop at Usingers to buy meats and sausages they don't have available in Anchorage.

After loading up with goodies, we stopped to have our picture taken outside the shop. What a fun time we had. It's always good to see relatives that live so far away.
