Sometimes The Best Destinations Are Right In Your Back Yard

It's a sunny spring day and all my usual Saturday stuff is done, (Jazzercise, grocery shopping and cleaning the house) so I decided to drive the mile down the road and take advantage of the hiking trails in a little county park near my house. 

It's sad and I feel embarrassed to admit that I've only been to this park just once in recent years. Many years ago when I was growing up I used to snowmobile through this park in winter. It's gorgeous and with its rolling hills it's the perfect setting for a hike.

So with my favorite walking partner Zoe we made our way through the woods. 

It just goes to show you that you don't need to drive hours to do something that inspires you and makes you feel recharged. Sometimes the best destinations are right under your nose or a mile down the road. Wisconsin is full of great places like this and even though I love spending time in the big city, places like my Walla Hi County Park make me love where I live just as much!
