There's never a dull moment during a season in Wisconsin. If Wisconsin knows anything; it's intensity. It does everything wholeheartedly. When it snows; it's a blizzard. When the sun comes out; there's a heat advisory. What can I say...it lives life @ full speed!
If you're concerned about high electric bills during the summer and even higher gas bills in the winter, this is probably not the state for you. But for those of us who choose to stick around and enjoy these four seasons, there is much to enjoy.
One of the most satisfying parts of the summer is when the corn starts growing. I tend to scoot the same roads and most of them are out in the country where I'll have a corn field on either side of me. We went a month or so with no rain, which I think the corn likes, and then we got hit. There was so much moisture in the air you could almost smell the corn growing. You could visit Wisconsin and drive past a farm and know exactly what kind of season we've had already. First: how does the corn look? Second: if you can smell the cow poop from a distance, we've had a lot of rain.
We also have a ton of lakes which surprisingly are very clean. I've spent the last couple nights on the water and it's been amazing. As soon as that jetski hits plane and you feel like you're skating on ice... it's an incredible feeling. I wish I took advantage of the water more but there is BIG bucks in boating...
And by the time you've had enough of the heat and humidity, the thought of Fall is just around the corner. Camping, Bonfires, and the start of Football Season!
I'll sum up summer in Wisconsin with a quote from a friend while out scooting. We rode the same area a few weeks earlier and after making a turn and coming to a stop..."I recognized this was our turn from the smell of poop."
MUST BE A GOOD YEAR!
