I was then invited to head up stairs on my own and "take a look around." Okay, I headed up stairs and found a few knick knacks and a couple of full sized dioramas of life and medical facilities from days past. After satisfying my curiosity I headed back downstairs to sample the much hyped Sundae. Much to my disappointment, the second woman who served my sundae was extremely cold and would not entertain any sort of conversation with me (that's a star deduction right there!). Hmph, must of forgot to cover up the swastika tattoo on my forehead. Anyways, the Sundae was fantastic (have you ever had a BAD sundae?) and if I ever find myself in Two Rivers again I will be stopping by for sure.

I'm far more accustomed to the rural drive-in movies with great furrows with hills to angle your car on, but this has a distinctive charm. Cars are free to park wherever they would like, though I'd recommend taller vehicles park farther from the screen for the sake of us smaller sedans. Inside the building, there are bathrooms and some arcade games. There's a concessions counter, but I brought my own snacks, so no need to look too closely. I did see posters for pizza! The "doors" opened at 6:30pm when the movie started closer to 9pm. We were the first in the pot when we showed up at 6:40pm, so we took a drive around the charming town to return closer to 7:30pm. Maybe half a dozen cars in the lot. There was even a puppy in the bed of the pick-up that parked next to us! The location: 40ish miles outside Green Bay 75ish miles outside Milwaukee 100ish miles outside Madison For those willing to make the drive out of the city, this drive-in is delightful. Located in a small town in Calumet County. The service: Quick and efficient! Pretty laid-back! The price: $6 for a double feature? Is there really a better deal than that? I was delighted. For this unique experience, we got our money's worth and more. Next time: I hope they show a classic flick, there's something delicious about 80s and older films at the drive-in. Why yes, I do intend to return!

I had never even heard of Manitowoc, Wisconsin but I'd definitely heard of Keith Haring and Rahr West had a special exhibit of his original subway art. I'd seen Keith Haring art in person before but not original salvaged chalk drawings on what were blank advertising panels and I was totally geeked about it. They had a really extensive selection and it was awesome seeing it weathered and showing other layers of stuff stuck to parts of it, ads and whatnot as well as other graffiti on multiple panels. One had a little kid chalk drawing in addition to Keith's. Really wonderful stuff to see in pers and I didn't have to go to NYC or pay NYC prices to do so. This museum is donation based with $5 suggested for adults. The special exhibit does take up the better part of the space, wrapping around a central gallery and there's a smaller gallery off to one side. It had an awesome piece of folk art and a couple good landscapes but there wasn't a whole lot extraordinary in the permanent collection. They do have a little piece of a Sputnik salvaged from the streets of this city and a cool sculpture outside. Downstairs there's student art studios and some funky murals. They have a recreation of Starry Night made with bottle caps that covers a whole wall. That made quite an impression on me. There wasn't also a chalkboard with some examples of Keith Haring art next to it encouraging you to make your own Keith Haring style art, or not Keith Haring style if you wanna be an iconoclast. There's not enough in the permanent collection here for me to recommend going out of your way to visit but if they have an incredible special exhibit like Keith Haring and you find yourself in Wisconsin this is a fantastic little museum.

It's sustainable and the only way to experience it is to go to the property and meet the owners themselves. Their hospitality and high quality products will please your palate and your budget! These owners are humble real people who had a dream and worked to make it come true. There's nothing pretentious about the wine they make. It's pure, clean, and as beautiful as the property you'll find yourself surrounded by. A great little retreat area for a quiet romantic getaway. The owners will do private parties, wine tastings, wine pairing dinners with a great chef and lovely menu. The fish in the property can be special ordered in a few mouth watering selections -- just call ahead to reserve the yummies for yourself! This quiet couple will walk you through their property, teach you about their process, and share their amazing products. It'll be a day you'll cherish with a group of good friends. On the way out, be sure to purchase your favorites because you can only get them from the Winery! Be sure to ask about the ice wine! Even if there isn't any available, you'll love learning about the process and just maybe you can find out when the next batch can be ordered!!! Also, be sure to ask about the grape powder! Remember -- the process is sustainable! Almost nothing is wasted! You'll be amazed! I was!

What better way to learn about the Dairy's State's dairy industry than visiting a real diary farm and witness it's moo-vie stars (yes, there is a short movie and it actually is very educational and entertaining) in action. We got to watch a calf be born onsite that morning, then learn how agriculture brings food to our tables through well designed,interactive exhibits and then enjoy some tasty food at the onsite cafe (great cheese curd fries and burgers). As a bonus, there was a fun corn maze to grab a beer or a canned brandy old fashioned and get lost in. Our family had a good time. We spent about 4 hours there so well worth the admission price for the fun memories we had. Is it for everyone, maybe not but it is probably a good idea to learn about where your food comes from and how it impacts your community. Have fun and learn something useful. Win/win right there.

I should have figured it was geared to small children on my own but a heads up from the front desk lady would have been appreciated before I paid $36 for two adults.

Sputnik was circling the globe and many were worried that the United States could be attacked from space. On September 5, 1962 a piece of the Soviet Satellite came crashing down into the Wisconsin town of Manitowoc.

I was in high school, in 1962, when this piece of a Russian satellite crashed into 8th Street in…read moreManitowoc. The cops thought it was a piece of foundry slag, it was too hot to touch. They kicked it to the curb. After the significance of the event sank into the city's head, it became a big thing for a while. The original piece was given back to the Russians. The Russians had an attitude about the affair, they didn't really want to admit that their satellite crashed into the earth due to an uncontrolled descent. Two replicas were cast before the thing was returned to the Russians. The Republican party got one and the Democrats the other. Neither party really wanted it. So one of the replicas ended up in the Rahr West Museum There is a brass ring in the middle of 8th Street where the chunk landed and a stone marker on the curb. If you want to see the ring you'd better be quick and alert, as 8th Street is a major thoroughfare. Not much to see; but an interesting bit of local history. The Rahr West Museum is definitely worth a visit.
