What could you do more of?
Vacations….wish I could do more of!
Life is so stressful and expensive!
I just want to run away to a deserted island away from everyone and everything.
I would build a lighthouse and live in it for the rest of life.
Little vacations help a little but not able to doany because of cost.
Makes life depressing when all you do id work!
How do you relax?
I like to read to relax.
Horseback riding when I can.
Hiking in the woods.
Door County is on a peninsula between Green Bay and Lake Michigan, in the state of Wisconsin. It’s known for its long shoreline and many parks. Peninsula State Park on Green Bay is home to sheltered Nicolet Beach, with its calm waters. On Lake Michigan, Newport State Park is a wilderness park crisscrossed with trails. Potawatomi State Park, in Sturgeon Bay, is fringed by limestone cliffs.
My Mom, daughter and I went to stay in Ephraim, door county for a girl’s getaway and it was the absolute best!
We stayed at a very nice resort with our own balcony and it had a pool with a jacuzzi for the guests to use which my daughter and I sure did and had so much fun bopping a beach ball in the pool!
We ate at quite a few restaurants which had delicious food and great seevice from the friendly workers. My faves were the Blue Horse beach cafe and Shipwrecked.
We took a tour of the Eagle Bluff lighthouse. I love lighthouses and try to see as many as I possibly can, so far I have seen 36! So many more to go!
We then moved on to lunch and a little vintage market to do a bit of shopping along with walking around other shops in town before dinner.
That night we enjoyed a spooky ghost trolley tour! It was so much fun and my Mom loved it! We actually got photos of spirits at the Noble house! We also went to a cemetery and lastly the Eagle Bluff lighthouse. We had a stop by the water where the guide Ronnie related a story of a horrible shipwreck. (Beforehand he came up behind me as I was looking out at the water and grabbed my shoulders- scared me to death!!!🤣)
On the way back he played spooky music and had us do a fun singalong, it was a blast! My Mom even loved it and joined in.
I an so spooked by this photo! My original did not have that spirit! It was just a picture of the lighthouse!
That was such an awesome experience! Spooky and amazing!
The next day we went to breakfast at the Sunset Harbor before moving on to our next lighthouse, my fave in Door County, the Cana Island Lighthouse!
Afterwards we decided to relax at the beach for awhile before dinner. Calming and refreshing.
We then went back to the resort to change and go out for dinner. When we finished and went back to our room we decided to walk across the street to the resort’s private beach to enjoy the sunset.
Then went back to play in the pool again!🤣
The next and our last day was bittersweet, wanted to stay but knew had to get back to reality.
We stopped at a cheese shop with a wine shop next door! Convenient! My daughter purchased both lol!
We also stopped at my favorite shop of all time!
The Lighthouse shop in Kewaunee, WI. It sells all things related to lighthouses and alot of it! I spent quite a bit and now broke but so worth it! I hope that the shop lasts because the owner mentioned that their business has slowed down due to changes made to their roads.
Afterwards we drove the rest of the way back home. This trip was the best trip for me because it was with my Mom and daughter. My fave ladies!😊🩷
I took my hubby to a small ren faire today for his birthday and we had fun!
It was a small version on one but we walked around to see the vendors, a show and bow and arrow shooting.
That was fun to do simce havem’t done since high school.
I found a dollhouse there- a spooky one!!
My hubby was interviewed by fox 6!🤣
We then ventured to Halloween by Scary Jim and that shop beats Spirit Halloween! Was a fun and spooky store! Lots of items and costumes to choose from!
If you like spooky- go to this amazing shop!! 🎃❤️
I bought ghost face motion activated doll and a couple of cute spooky keyrings.

I went back to yes.fit and joined another race! The Lighthouse expedition!
I enjoy being able to do this workout on my own time.
I have done quite a few already and recieved my medals for completing them.
I have finished the Lighthouse race and wait in anticipation for my medal!😊
This is a lost of completed races.
I feel that this motivates me to be more in tune with my body and excited to workout again.
I feel I have accomplished something after each completed race.
A few were with Ace races as well.

Halloween is a holiday celebrated on October 31 each year, originating from the ancient Celtic festival of Samhain, which marked the end of summer and the beginning of winter. Modern traditions include carving jack-o’-lanterns and trick-or-treating, but the holiday also features themes of costumes, festive gatherings, and eating treats.
Halloween, or Hallowe’en[7][8] (less commonly known as Allhalloween,[9]All Hallows’ Eve,[10] or All Saints’ Eve),[11] is a celebration observed in many countries on 31 October, the eve of the Western Christian feast of All Hallows’ Day. It is at the beginning of the observance of Allhallowtide,[12]the time in the Christian liturgical year dedicated to remembering the dead, including saints (hallows), martyrs, and all the faithful departed.[3][13][14][15] In popular culture, Halloween has become a celebration of horror and is associated with the macabre and the supernatural.
One theory holds that many Halloween traditions were influenced by Celtic harvest festivals, particularly the Gaelic festival Samhain, which are believed to have pagan roots.[17][18][19][20] Some theories go further and suggest that Samhain may have been Christianized as All Hallows’ Day, along with its eve, by the early Church.[21] Other academics say Halloween began independently as a Christian holiday, being the vigil of All Hallows’ Day.[22][23][24][25] Celebrated in Ireland and Scotland for centuries, Irish and Scottish immigrants took many Halloween customs to North America in the 19th century,[26][27] and then through American influence various Halloween customs spread to other countries by the late 20th and early 21st century.[16][28]
Popular activities during Halloween include trick-or-treating (or the related guising and souling), attending Halloween costume parties, carving pumpkins or turnips into jack-o’-lanterns, lighting bonfires, apple bobbing, divination games, playing pranks, visiting haunted attractions, telling frightening stories, and watching horror or Halloween-themed films.[29] Some Christians practice the observances of All Hallows’ Eve, including attending church services and lighting candles on the graves of the dead,[30][31][32]although it is a secular celebration for others.[33][34][35] Some Christians historically abstained from meat on All Hallows’ Eve, a tradition reflected in the eating of certain vegetarian foods on this day, including apples, potato pancakes, and soul cakes.
