Hello fellow Hwy 51 travelers!
This morning we traveled from Stevens Point to Minocqua. Along the way we saw some interesting little towns, visited two State Parks, saw a county courthouse that can only be described as "WOW", and had some fun at the miniature golf links.
Here is a shot of the Wisconsin River from Rib Mountain State Park near Wausau.
We found a lovely spot for our picnic lunch at Council Grounds State Park in Merrill. The Wisconsin River is in the background.
The Lincoln County Courthouse in Merrill is the most interesting civic building we have seen so far on our trip. This picture doesn't do it justice. It is a fantastic building, both inside and out. There is some very intricate and beautiful tilework inside. They also have a rotunda that is beautifully decorated.
We decided to have some fun after dinner in Minocqua tonight. Here is a shot of the mini golf course at Settler's Mill.
It is always nice to see a smiling face along the way....even a pink one!
We push onward tomorrow toward Hurley and we will check in again from there.
----Susan and Denis
