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.
