Found: Coolest Spot in Wisconsin, Two Rivers, WI

Two Rivers, Wisconsin juts into Lake Michigan where summer breezes off Lake Michigan can keep it 20 or more degrees cooler than inland or even slightly south. The lake is sometimes placid as shown on this postcard, but at other times waves come in large enough to surf as memorialized in Depo Provera's instrumental "Surf Lake Michigan" from 1985.

Hoffman Monuments faces Lake Michigan so we passed it on our daily summer bike ride on the
Mariners Bike Trail. It felt odd to see the gravestone of someone we knew displayed out front waiting for pick up. Their name carved in black granite.

| Found: Moonlight on Wisconsin River, Nelson Dewey State Park, Near Prairie Du Chien, Wis. circa 1931 Caption: "...Indeed it is difficult to imagine a scene more charming than the Wisconsin River by moonlight, as the quiet waters reflect the silvery rays on the pebbled beach and along the winding shores and wooded banks." |
| The melancholy moon shimmering on lakes and rivers appears a common theme circa 1930. In post-Great Depression America, the faraway moon touching the landscape creates a mystic escape. |
