Superior side of Wisconsin

Wisconsin Point Lighthouse

A day trip to Superior, WI port city on Lake Superior while we were camping at Pattison State Park.

We ventured to Wisconsin Point, a barrier island with beaches and a lovely little lighthouse. Lots of photo opportunities.

SS Meteor

Over on Barkers Island we toured the SS Meteor the last of the Whaleback ships. Now permanently docked, it was a fascinating museum with full tour of everything from the quarters to the engine room.

Life boat almost a hundred years old.

Lake Superior Estuarium

Another stop on Barkers, a visit to the Estuarium. We learned a lot about fresh water Estuaries, which are where two different bodies of water meet and create a unique habitat.

Flight at the Thirsty Pagan Brewery

After a full day of touring we enjoyed a stop at the Thirsty Pagan Brewery.

They had the best pizza, we had their award winning Bacon Jalapeno Popper Pizza, just enough zing to go with a shared flight of 9 beers. Conveniently it included every one of their micro brews.
