View of mostly frozen Green Bay from Fish Creek, WI 
View of Lake Michigan, Cave Point County Park, Door County, WI On Saturday, we headed out from Chicago and just north of Milwaukee turned off the highway to stop at Cedar Valley Cheese, where we picked up their famous string cheese and a blue and brie cheese spread. Tasty.
Our meanderings took us next on the Kettle Moraine Scenic Drive through the north unit of the Kettle Moraine State Forest. Patches of snow on the ground and beautiful views of the kettles and forest...
Next stop: More cheese! Henning's Wisconsin Cheese provided us with a super-spicy mango hanbanero cheese and a horseradish cheddar spread. Yum!
In Green Bay, we stopped off at the Titletown Brewing Company for lunch. Good food and beer. We tried the Railyard Alt and the Dark Helmet Schwartzbier. Both recommended!
From Green Bay, we headed onto the Door County Peninsula. After a much needed nap, dinner at the Whistling Swan Inn and Restaurant was on the agenda! As an added bonus, the town of Fish Creek has a small park, which offers views of mostly frozen Green Bay and is situated perfectly for beautiful sunsets! See pictures.
At dinner, we warmed oursleves by the wood burning fireplace, ate delicious food, and sampled great drinks - namely Hinterland Brewery's Maple Bock. We could not have asked for a better end to our Saturday!
Sunday allowed us to relax and read while watching it snow all morning. In the afternoon, we tried Door County's only microbrewery, Shipwrecked. After lunch, we visited Stone's Throw Winery, which uses grapes from California to make wine in Wisconsin. A final stop at Cave Point County Park showed us some mighty winter waves in Lake Michigan. See pictures!
