8 Things To Do In Wisconsin This Summer

We are blessed with one of the most beautiful states in the country (but I may be a bit biased), Wisconsin. Use this summer to get out and explore our beautiful state, add these to your summer bucket list and you won't regret it!

1. Wisconsin State Fair

Head on down to the Wisconsin State Fair for some food and fun! While you're there have one (or more) of the famous cream puffs and enjoy the beautiful Wisconsin Weather!

2. Summerfest

What's Milwaukee without Summerfest?! 11 days of shows, over 700 artists and a beautiful view of the lake. It's the perfect way to spend a warm Wisconsin night listening to great music with even greater friends and making memories that will last for years to come!

3. Devils Lake State Park

One of the most popular places to spend a warm summer day. Hike one of the many trails in the state park or jump in a canoe and try your luck at not tipping over. Whatever you choose to do at Devils Lake, it will be beautiful.

4. Weekend in the Wisconsin Dells

Get some friends together, book a room for the weekend, and spend a hot weekend cooling off in the Dells. With all the different water parks and attractions there, you won't want to come home. They don't call it the waterparks capital of the world for nothing!

5. Door County

It is a beautiful part of Wisconsin that everyone should visit at least once. Every season is beautiful there! No words can describe the beauty of a summer day in Door County.

6. Taste of Madison

One of my favorite events of the year, local restaurants and business put out booths with food and drink and other special things around the capital building while live music can be heard everywhere.

7. State Street in Madison

While you're at Taste of Madison, take a walk down state street, with its amazing assortment of little shops and random things it's a wonderful way to spend a day.

8. Brewers Game

Baseball is the American past time, so what's a summer in Wisconsin without a Brewers game? Not much can beat the experience of being at the game watching those racing sausages (opps, I mean players)!

Living in Wisconsin may be colder than cold in the winters, but we are blessed with the most beautiful summers of anywhere. From the bluffs in La Crosse, to Bradford beach in Milwaukee, we have a beautiful state to enjoy all summer! What's on your summer bucket list?

AI music threatens creativity

The Soul of Sound: How AI Challenges Human Expression in Music

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

We are all more than just one sign.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
