Troy and I don’t like driving on the interstate. But with out-of-town families, it happens a lot. This past weekend, after Father’s Day, my dad suggested a new route home … sans interstate (for most of it).
I can’t believe that after 10 years of living away from “home” I never knew about this back road way. Driving alongside Lake Winnebago (not on the Oshkosh side, which is ugly) … was absolutely phenomenal. The lake looked like the ocean with farmland for its shore … add a sunset with some windmills (my favorite), I just wanted to drive it all night long.
I hope to return here soon for a photo session. It’s a little over an hour away from Madison, but it’s worth it.
Troy took the photos of me. The rest were taken while we were driving. Glad we took a new way, a longer way, the scenic way, the way that made us stop even longer and get out of the car and take some photos for ourselves.
Soulmates :) i absolutely love windmills and COWS which you’ll find out when im there next week! COWWWS. I can’t wait, this is beautiful, and you are beautiful! xoxo
OOOOhhh…I totally want to shoot in front of those windmills!!!
I love the photos he took of you :)
i love driving, and especially around wisconsin. i’ll have to ask you about this route, in case i haven’t taken it, as i drive there often!
Glad I’m not the only one who thinks Wind Turbines are the bee’s knee’s. There are a ton out in the country over here by where my parents live and I just love looking at them when the sun is setting.
The east side of the lake is my absolute favorite!! I love that the farms are just right there — right on the water! So peaceful and undisturbed, all those little towns. It’s my dreamland. Gorgeous.
