10 Spots In Wisconsin To Check Out This Summer

Summer is finally around the corner, and I'm really excited! There is so much to do, and Wisconsin has a lot to offer when it comes to summer activities. Here are just some of the places that you can check out while you are here!

1. Wisconsin Dells

One of my favorite places to go over the summer. There is so much to do in the waterpark capital of the world that you can take various trips over the summer, and not go to the same place twice unless you want to.

2. Lake Superior

The great lake to our north. It's not only the largest Great Lake in North America, but it's also the world's largest freshwater lake by surface area.

3. Lake Michigan

Lake Michigan is our Great Lake to the east. This is the only one that the entire lake is located in the United States.

4. Milwaukee, Wisconsin

Milwaukee is the biggest city in Wisconsin, and there is a bunch of stuff to do filled with sports, museums, trails, locations like the Pierhead Lighthouse, Milwaukee County Zoo, Historical Milwaukee Boat Tour, Discovery World, and Bronze Fonz, and many more things.

5. Madison, Wisconsin

https://images.app.goo.gl/zq6N2DWu8AdyiEXz7

As the state's capital, there is plenty to do from museums to sports, and everything in between. There are lots of sites to see and hang out at like the Monona Terrace, Lake Monona, and Lake Mendota, state street, Henry Vilas Zoo, and Olbrich Botanical Gardens.

6. Lake Geneva, Wisconsin

I get to attend college about 40 minutes away and get to go to Lake Geneva at any time I want. There are beaches, paddle boarding, and jet skiing along with stuff like hiking and biking trails, and a historic tour at the Black Point Estate and Gardens.

7. Devil's Lake State Park

https://images.app.goo.gl/162N5GimniEC7hFA7

This is a place that I have been a few times and loved it every single time. It's a place where you can hike, fish, climbing, and swimming.

8. Cave Point County Park

https://images.app.goo.gl/7Y78ymdx8GFwgpct9

This is in Door County and is by Lake Michigan. It's a beautiful place with great views. You can go hiking, hang out at the beach, go on a tour, explore the caves, and many other things.

9. Schoolhouse Beach

Another place in Door County that you should check out. It's also by Lake Michigan. It's a part of the Niagara Escarpment. It's a place where you can have a picnic, grill, hang out at the beach, and swim.

10. Apostle Islands National Lakeshore

https://images.app.goo.gl/M5tXgKHAHvQDvATH6

This is by the southern Lake Superior. There are beaches, trails, cliffs, and water that you can explore. The only way you can get to the Apostle Islands is by boat. You can fish, kayak, canoe, and/or wind-surfer.

Along with this list, there is so much to do in Wisconsin over the summer including state fairs and festivals.

25 Beatles Lyrics: Your Go-To Guide for Every Situation

The Best Lines from the Fab Four

SUNY Binghamton

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Student Life

Waitlisted for a College Class? Here's What to Do!

Dealing with the inevitable realities of college life.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

The Best Lines from the Fab Four

And in the end, the love you take is equal to the love you make

The sun is up, the sky is blue, it's beautiful and so are you

Love is old, love is new, love is all, love is you

There's nowhere you can be that isn't where you're meant to be

Life is very short, and there's no time for fussing and fighting, my friend

He say, "I know you, you know me", One thing I can tell you is you got to be free

Oh please, say to me, You'll let me be your man. And please say to me, You'll let me hold your hand

It was twenty years ago today, Sgt. Pepper taught the band to play. They've been going in and out of style, but they're guaranteed to raise a smile

Living is easy with eyes closed, misunderstanding all you see

Can you hear me? When it rains and shine, it's just a state of mind

Little darling, it's been long cold lonely winter. Little darling, it feels like years since it' s been here. Here comes the sun, Here comes the sun, and I say it's alright

We danced through the night and we held each other tight, and before too long I fell in love with her. Now, I'll never dance with another when I saw her standing there

I love you, I love you, I love you, that's all I want to say

You say you want a revolution. Well you know, we all want to change the world

All the lonely people, where do they all come from. All the lonely people, where do they all belong

Oh, I get by with a little help from my friends

Hey Jude, don't make it bad. Take a sad song and make it better

Yesterday, all my troubles seemed so far away. Now it looks as though they're here to stay. Oh, I believe in yesterday

And when the brokenhearted people, living in the world agree, there will be an answer, let it be.

And anytime you feel the pain, Hey Jude, refrain. Don't carry the world upon your shoulders

I'll give you all I got to give if you say you'll love me too. I may not have a lot to give but what I got I'll give to you. I don't care too much for money. Money can't buy me love

All you need is love, love is all you need

Whisper words of wisdom, let it be

Blackbird singing in the dead of night, Take these broken wings and learn to fly. All your life, You were only waiting for this moment to arise

Though I know I'll never lose affection, for people and things that went before. I know I'll often stop and think about them. In my life, I love you more

Obviously the best superpower.

There have been many lessons learned.

1. The importance of traditions.

2. How to be thankful for family and friends.

3. How to give back.

4. What the word "community" really means.

5. That it isn't about the destination, but the journey.

6. The consequences of making bad choices.

7. To trust people, until you have a reason not to.

8. To be welcoming and accepting of everyone.

9. How to be my own, individual person.

10. How to work for what I want.

11. How to be great at giving directions.

12. How to be humble.

13. To be well-rounded.

14. How to be great at conflict resolution.

15. The beauty of getting outside and exploring.

16. To be prepared for anything.

17. That you don't always have to do it alone.

18. How to be creative.

19. To brush off gossip.

I have never been so thankful to know you.
