We usually have a white Thanksgiving. We sometimes have a white Halloween. Once, copper was king. Now we've cornered the market on snow. Hug Wisconsin Highway 13 around the bay, and there, on Lake Superior, is Bayfield .
People here hear that, and they go nuts.
By far, the overriding thing is the lake. Pretty special little place. North central Wisconsin, south of Michigan's Upper Peninsula, is as much lake as land. The towns here hardly matter, except as places to catch a movie when you aren't catching anything else, plus motels and supper clubs for the cottage-weary. In Door County, north of Green Bay, we come to another fresh-water thumb.
