Washington Island Tower

Washington Island is a large-ish island off the tip of the peninsula that is Door County. It was actually settled before the rest of the peninsula, presumably because the way people got to these parts 150 years ago was by boat. Nowadays, it is an easy ferry ride from the northern tip of the peninsula. On the top of the highest hill on Washington Island is a tower you can go to the top of. It offers a nice panoramic view of most of the island. Here is part of that view. Still looks like fall, but trust me, this was late May. Spring came late this year.

What pretty rustic country! If it wasn’t for the awful winters, I’d consider moving somewhere like this.
