JUNE ARRIVES IN WISCONSIN

Time to flip the page on the calendar... First Sunday in June.

Crops are in, here you can see the size of the field and these fields are everywhere throughout Wisconsin. This is probably Corn, you can see it starting to come up. There used to be a blanket of trees like this, all the way to the East Coast. Thats how things used to be.

A farm laid out under the blue sky and white clouds. Less than five minutes from Madison, Capitol of Wisconsin.

This is Crandall's deli, they have great fish fry take out. Daughter Lisa used to work here.

There are a lot of places that do good fish fry: bars, small restaurants, delis.
