My family used to have a cabin in Chetek, WI and the spring and fall opening/closing weekends were sacrosanct until my mom's health made us have to sell the place (to the grandson of the guy my stepdad bought it from, completing a cycle of life gesture). My stepdad and his nephew and I still try to get up there once a year (offseason usually, to avoid the crowds). Nothing like the North Woods, even with Cheeseheads, to soothe the soul.Bill Savagehttp://chicagobydayandnight.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3972382144120426476.post-69787663767281390152014-10-10T08:52:14.393-05:002014-10-10T08:52:14.393-05:00I used to love the UP until one time when I took m...I used to love the UP until one time when I took my African-American girlfriend there. The early autumn warmth turned to a deep chill - you'd think we had traveled to Bridgeport. In retrospect not surprisingly, people were friendlier on the other side of the border in Canada. I still go up there frequently and on more recent trips I noticed it seemed like there were a lot more Amish vehicles on the back roads. <br /><br />Anyway, if you want to try something a little different on one of these trips, take an extra day or two and head up the Lake Superior coastline to Wawa - the scenery is spectacular and they have a statute of a goose in the middle of what they call downtown.
