I opted to go by myself, which was nice because I could walk and read at my own pace. Parking was ample. Their are wooded walking trails with scenic stops. I started with the informative Feed Mill. Staff was abundant for questions but they had well marked signs all over. I wandered through a war camp (?) which was not as well marked but they were starting to tear down so maybe the signs went first. Next I checked out the General Store, another camp setup, two farm homes, followed by the sugar shack where they sold Maple Cotton Candy. Let me tell you, this is the elite flavor of cotton candy. There were also stands with food, beverages (unclear if they sold beer), and novelties. They had a silent auction, raffle, and antiques. Plenty of activities for kids but it is a bit of walking. It took about 3,000 steps to do the full loop. I am definitely headed back with a group to attend their Blacksmith Day on October 7th.

Lime Kiln Park - A Hidden Gem in Menomonee Falls…read more We took a hike through Lime Kiln Park today and absolutely loved it! Tucked away in Menomonee Falls, this park feels like a peaceful little escape with just the right mix of nature, history, and fresh air. We explored both the upper and lower falls, and the views did not disappoint--especially with the sound of the rushing water and all the lush greenery around us. The trails are paved and easy to follow, which made our walk feel more like a relaxing stroll than a workout. There's something really cool about walking past the historic lime kilns--like you've stepped back in time for a moment. Between the rock formations, bridges, and little scenic spots to pause and take it all in, we found ourselves stopping often just to appreciate the beauty around us. It's the kind of place where you can go for a walk, clear your head, or bring the family for a peaceful afternoon. We even saw a few people playing disc golf and lots of birds hanging out near the water. If you haven't been yet, Lime Kiln Park is totally worth the visit. Bring your walking shoes, your camera, and a little curiosity--you'll leave refreshed and maybe even a bit inspired.

We went in to the store and asked because it was after three and found out there is an admission booth further down on the field. We made our way down there and paid the admission and were each given a small bag to pick apples. Most of them were roped off except for the last few rows. In the way to that they had some really cute photo opps in a Zinnia field and in a sunflower field. The lady in the store yelled at my son in law for standing by a rope to look at the cider. Other than a few missteps, we thought it was worth the trip. The only downfall is there was no food to eat except for snacks. The donuts are only on Sat. And Sunday.

But we like small museums too, so off we go. There is free street parking, but it's hard to figure out where the entrance is. It's off Main Street on the little drop-off loop, up a few stairs and under the "WAUKESHA COUNTY" sign. Inside there's a desk with a volunteer selling admission, except we were lucky and it was a free day! We still donated some money though. Part of the museum was closed for renovations. They're planning a big birthday exhibition soon. Most of the museum is the typical stuff you'd get at a historical society (including a research library), but the standout here is the Les Paul room. I thought it was very well done; the kids and I all liked it and learned a lot about out local guitar engineer. Definitely worth a trip out here atleast once. Plus it's a cute little town and even an after-museum walk along the Fox in winter is enjoyable.

Somewhere there's music How faint the tune…read moreSomewhere there's heaven How high the moon At the Waukesha County Museum, the music can be found high up on the 3rd floor, for this is the permanent home and exhibit of Waukesha's most famous son: Les Paul, aka, The Wizard of Waukesha. It's hard for me to put in words how much I respect Les Paul. He was a genius on so many fronts: guitarist extraordinaire, singer, songwriter, comedian, inventor, innovator and all around good guy. Not a day goes by in our lives where something we see or hear was not influenced by his technical advancements. Did you hear recorded music today? Les pioneered multi-track recording. How about Led Zeppelin? Jimmy Page's preferred electric guitar was a Gibson Les Paul. For that matter, if you heard rock and roll today, somewhere, somehow, Les's influence was there. So to be able to fork over only $7 to see some of Les's personal artifacts and mementos is a great deal to me. The museum has some other interesting artifacts too. In the Winter of 2014, the first floor exhibited items from the American Civil War. A few of the items were downright harrowing: whips, ball and chain, shackles--how could humans have done this to one another? And while it's not a huge museum--you can see the entire thing, thoroughly, in about 3 hours--it's a great way to while away a Saturday or Sunday winter afternoon. It's also in a building which is an interesting artifact itself--the former Waukesha County Courthouse built in 1893. My suggestion: start at the bottom and work your way up. You'll be saving the best part--the Les Paul exhibit--for last. The Waukesha County Museum. The best reason to visit Waukesha since spring water. Note: Waukesha was known as Spring City. People traveled from around the world to sip its water with "miraculous healing powers." Today that water has, for the most part, been replaced by Miller Lite.
