We stayed in WI into the next week (it's just too far of a drive for a weekend). Monday morning mom had to go over to Three Lakes to take down an exhibit she had in the art center there. The kids and I walked down the street a few blocks to a really nice town park.
On the way back to Minocqua we looked for an interesting new place to have lunch. We have always seen signs for the Black Bear Lodge in St. Germain so we decided to find it and try it out. The nice thing about this time of the year is that most places are very quiet on a weekday, in this case we were the only people there for lunch!
Mom and Alex had been wanting to go mini golfing since summer. On the way out of town that morning they had noticed that once of the places that has mini golf in addition to a garden/landscaping center had their "open" sign turned on in the mini golf building so on the way home we stopped to see if they were actually open. The garden center was but they said there was no reason why we couldn't golf, in face they hadn't drained the ponds and pipes yet so they even turned on the waterfalls and fountains for us! And I talked them into an off season rate :)
It was a perfect day and the mini golf course was actually kind of neat. Since it was at a garden center, each hole had a horticultural type theme - certain types of trees and/or flowers. I would love to go there in the spring and see everything in bloom.
