I love door county. I'm so glad you decided to come visit my state and one of its most beautiful areas. I'm also glad Bella got to enjoy this gem of a place before her unfortunate passing. She had one of the greatest friend and owner a dog could ever ask for. My late condolences to you. You are a wonderful, kind, and big-hearted person, Randy. Thank you for being such a joy to us.

Thankyou Rephael for the kind words. I appreciate the encouragement.
Living in northern Illinois, I’ve heard of Door Co, WI, but had no idea it was that big and so much to see and do. Looks like a lovely laid back summer get away. Great video! And all the info in the description box is very helpful to everyone. 👍🏼😀

I’ve gone each year for the past 17 years and have found something new each time! Favorite vacation spot for sure! Props to shouting out big easy. Such a good breakfast place! I’m also excited cuz they are reopening fireside which is their lunch and dinner place that is also excellent. Great video!

Thankyou for the nice words, and good to know about Fireside, I'm sure it will be a success
Years ago I somehow got a 48 foot flatbed on one of those ferries and delivered a partial load of shingles, was fun.
I'm SHOCKED at how much information you were able to pack into your short Door Country exploratory tour. What a great job!

Well done. I’ve been coming to door county since the 60s. Last summer in 2023 we finally bit the bullet and built a house in sister Bay. Make sure you hit one of the breweries in door county. My favorite is the Peach barn brewery in Sister Bay. Tell them Keith sent you.

Yes it is
PLAYED MUSIC IN FISH CREEK 1971. Beautiful place.
One thing one should see on Washington Island is the Swedish Stave Church, a replica of the ones in Medieval Sweden. It was built by artisans from that country and is affiliated with the Lutheran Church just down the board walk, along the road. Also, near Fish Creek is the Penninsula Players Playhouse. I believe one of the oldest summer stock theaters in the country? Very entertaining performances up to the end of October. And speaking of the end of October...In my opinion that's the best time to see the colors of the autumn leaves.

True about the fall colors but then it's a little too cold to do para sailing or boating
Another great video. Looks like a nice place to unwind and enjoy Mother nature

Oh no. I missed your live presentation again! Just saw it and love it. Brings back my kid years in Minnesota and Wisconsin. Great comprehensive video. Will plan to make the next live presentation of part 3. Even though my notification bell is on, I still missed it.

Yea I did it earlier than I normally do, and deleted that video and quickly re-uploaded because the was some audio missing, but next week, Milwaukee will premiere back at regular time 7:15, or 7:30 maybe because giving a little more time for football games ending. This will be the video with the Harley museum.
We LOVE Door County, We have reservations for lodging this coming June, but with decent lodging going for $200-$600 a night and basically gridlock for any festivals, we hardly feel like it's the "simple life".

This is beautiful!!!! Something to put on my travel bucket list. It would be interesting to see a video where you list your top 5 or top 10 destinations. You’ve gone to so many beautiful and fun places. It is great to watch!
