Wisconsin Apple Harvest
September 25th, 2009 by knapik
A very good apple harvest is underway in the famed apple growing area surrounding Gays Mills, Wisconsin. Last week the orchards brought in the highly desired Honeycrisp apples, so a good supply of these sweet, crisp apples is readily available right now. Other late maturing apples will continue to be harvested for a while. Several of the orchards have very neat gift shops associated with their businesses and it’s a blast to browse the shelves for eclectic soup mixes, locally made maple syrup and honey, pumpkins, and of course for specialty Wisconsin cheeses.
Milwaukee MG Club
July 27th, 2009 by knapik
On Friday and Saturday nights, July 24 and 25, the Inn at Lonesome Hollow (www.lonesomehollow.com) hosted a group of eleven friends from the Milwaukee area. Lonesome Hollow hosts many family get-togethers and group outings, but this one was very special – the group drove here from Milwaukee in six vintage MG-B convertibles. Tim and Kathy Bradley organized this outing for the group.
On Friday evening the group enjoyed dinner at Country Gardens restaurant in Soldiers Grove, only a five mile drive from the Inn. On Saturday the group visited Vernon Vineyards and tasted the wine out on the scenic vineyard grounds near Chaseburg. Dinner on Saturday was cooked at the Homestead suites of Lonesome Hollow and included steaks purchased from Kickapoo Locker in Gays Mills. A Saturday night campfire capped the day for this fun group.
