Favorite Wisconsin Locations

It was perfect weather up around Sister Bay this weekend. Friday it was a little warm but cooled down shortly after 4.
Our Condo was really nice for the price. My only complaint is that the pillows on the bed were a bit stiff but otherwise it was really nice.
The main event of the weekend was taking the Ferry over to Washington Island and seeing all of the cool little sights.
The first thing we did was drive from one port over to the other that goes to Rock Island just to get an idea on the size of the island. 35 square miles is both small but large at the same time. Living there would be an experience for sure.
After that drive we went to Mountain Park and looked off of the lookout tower.
We then went to the Albatross Drive-In. The food took a bit of time to make but it was definitely good for a little ma and pa type eatery.
We stopped in at a local store and they told us that we definitely needed to visit Stavkirche and Schoolhouse Beach. Obviously we had to listen.
First we stopped at Stavkirche. This place was awesome.
Here is some info on the church: http://www.luther95.net/TELC-WIWI/Stav.htm
We then went to Schoolhouse Beach where I proceeded to skip rocks for quite some time. I will need to get pictures of that from my girlfriend.
We were getting tired and wanted to get back to the mainland to rest up a bit so we hopped back on the Ferry. This popped up there too
Washington Island was definitely worth the visit. I wish we had more time to spend there but we were only in Door County for the weekend.
ALso, I apologize for all of the poor quality cellphone shots. My girlfriend forgot the camera at home=P

I felt like Hansel and Gretel did when they saw the candy house=P
Was the path dotted with Starburst and prophylactic rubbers?

Off to Dodgeville/Spring Green next Friday and Saturday=)
It is my anniversary on Thursday so I thought I would treat the lady to House on the Rock and Cave of the Mounds.
There is a Troll Road that we will be stopping at in Mount Horeb as well.
Any other suggestions such as places to eat or other must see things in the area?
We are actually renting one of their condos this time so I will report on that after this weekend
