Northwoods drive

Not sure why it took me so long to take a drive up north ... and the weird vortex of weather circling over Wisconsin this weekend gave it the perfect rainy autumn gloom. It was a weekend of reunions -- with friends and with a place that I often longed to leave but also loved to explore on endless drives. I found stories in its dirt roads and expansive woods, cleared my head under the muted cover of impenetrable clouds.
