I love Door County, Wisconsin!

We went to Door County Wisconsin over the 4th of July and the following weekend for Nels' grandpa's (Far Far) memorial services. We saw and did a lot. Here's a quick summary with some pictures.
Welcome to Door County, Wisconsin...home for a lot of Swedes!
We stayed at Nels' family's cottage. His great grandpa Nils Nyborg built this cottage in the early 1900's. They've kept it up pretty well. It's so cute and cozy.

We went to a harbor that overlooked the bay to watch fireworks on the 4th of July. They shot the fireworks off a boat (probably not this one). They had a small parade of boats before the fireworks.

Here's the family waiting for the fireworks.

We toured a couple of lighthouses. I love lighthouses. Each one was so unique.

We went for a 10 mile bike ride through the woods and along the coast. It's beautiful scenery.

We stopped at Not Licked Yet for some frozen custard after the bike ride. I got the chocolate custard with raspberries and whip cream. It's called El Nino. It is soooo yummy!

On your marks, get set, go! We went go-carting, crazy drivers!

We played mini golf at Pirates Cove. Nels got 4 holes in 1!

That's what you get for having so many holes in one, Nels. :)

We ate at Al Johnson's Swedish Restaurant. We all got big mugs of hot chocolate.

I got the Swedish pancakes with ice cream and strawberries on top. It was divine!

This is the restaurant that has the goats on the roof. Pretty cool huh?!

The following weekend we went back up to Wisconsin for Far Far's memorial services. Far Far passed away back in February and was cremated. So we all got together to spread his ashes over great grandfather Nils Nyborg's grave and over Lake Michigan. We listened to Nels' dad and Uncle Phil as they told us their memories of Far Far. It was neat to learn more about him. I had only met him once a couple of years ago. It was great to see all of Nels' cousins and family and to get to know them better.

In a sense 4 generations. Great Grandpa Nils grave, Far Far's ashes, Nels Dad (Bob) and Nels.

Some sunsets in Wisconsin. Aren't they gorgeous??

Good-bye Door County, until next time!
