Minnesota, Wisconsin, Iowa, Michigan
MEM-MKE
July 14 - 22

• We ended up waking up around 8:30 or so, not feeling so great from the night before. We had breakfast and then left the hotel.
• As we drove north from Milwaukee via I-43, we stopped for food and supplies (148$).  From there, we continued driving to Green Bay and had lunch and beers at Titletown Brewing Company.  The food was good and the server was really friendly but the beer didn't have a lot of flavor.  Brad had the Apricot Ale and Nick had the Once Hopped Pale Ale.
• From the brewery, we went to Lambeau Field. We weren't expecting to have some sort of access or see lots of people there, but that's pretty much what we found.  Kudos to the Pack...we found lots of people taking tours and shopping at the gift shop.  We got Nick's brother Lucas a set of Packers playing cards, and Carrie & Adam a dog tag for Marley, the ever-loving Poodle.
• From Green Bay, we continued our drive toward Peninsula State Park in Door County, the peninsula county east of Green Bay.  The drive was really nice; we were surrounded by farmland and rolling hills with the quite frequent farms with their barns and grain silos throughout the trek.  
• As the drive progressed, we went through Sturgeon Bay, Egg Harbor, and Fish Creek.  All the towns we drove through were craft-oriented (meaning, old people)
• Once we reached Peninsula State Park a couple hours later, we secured one of the seven remaining campsites (of 468) and set up camp.  Camping was 7$ entry, 17$ for camping, 3$ for "water view," and = 27$.
• At PSP, we checked out the lighthouse, Eagle Tower, and the beach.  Once on the beach, the ranger expressed interest in taking our Point Beer, but it turned out he was just joking...and really liked Point Beer.
• We had a few beers (at Point Brewery and otherwise), and then cooked dinner, then called it a night.  
• BOD: New Glarus Double IPA (YUM!!!!!!), Central Waters Glacial Trail IPA, Point Nude Beach Summer Wheat, Point Lager
• Dinner: Chicken feta brats, kielbasa and slaw
