Streaks of color at dusk
Last week I was camping in northern Wisconsin. Of the six days I was there, the persistent clouds allowed me to see only one sunset. That evening on Trout Lake, about 20 minutes after the sun drifted below the horizon, gorgeous streaks of color appeared.
Day’s end at Tenney Park
Early yesterday evening it looked like we’d be in for a nice sunset. By the time I biked over to Tenney Park to take in the view, the clouds moving in from the west had something else in mind.

Is the sun setting on winter?
The past few days, we’ve had long-overdue seasonal temperatures in Madison. As I watched the bright sky turn to twilight along Lake Monona yesterday, I wondered… is the sun setting on this long winter?

The foggy unknown
We’ve had dense fog in Madison for two straight days. Some people complain about the gloominess the fog brings, but I love its mysterious nature.

My favorite view in all of Wisconsin
I’ve visited the Black Lagoon along the Star Lake Nature Trail (in northern Wisconsin) many times before. Yet whenever I am in the area, I am always drawn back there to see it again.
When I take the boardwalk path over the bog, and the scene reveals itself, I’m almost overwhelmed by the serene beauty. That feeling hits me every time I visit, even though I know what to expect.
I can’t wait to see it again.
