Holy Hill Ride - Post Event

Wow! What a turnout of members for this event - 25 cars! All looking for an adventure on a warm mid-October day. The day was perfect with bright blue skies and sunny warmth shining over us all. And that's just the start. Little did we know what we would be seeing today. We all met up at a Kwik trip (one of our club's favorite spots to meet at with all the conveniences one needs before driving for the day).

On the first leg we proceeded along Holy Hill Road curving around Friess Lake, St. Augustine Road, Emeral Drive, Donegal Road, Kettle Moraine Scenic Drive though all their twists and turns and beautiful fall colors as the leaves were at peak color that day and made gorgeous pictures! Then continued on to Dublin Drive (Irish anyone?) to Center Oak Road, Dieball Road, Woodchuck Way; all along seeing signs pointing us toward the most unique place I've ever seen, the Sculpture Park. Based on the handprinted signs, I really wasn't expecting much, BUT we were all in for a pleasant surprise and could have spent hours there and still not have seen all the metal sculptures this one man has made - from frogs and other animals "riding bicycles" to modern art formations! One just has to go see this place to believe it! They also had resident cranes enjoying the day there.

See the CALENDAR OF EVENTS! for the complete article.
