Holy Hill ride 6/3

The day started off with a ride halfway around the lake and took us past the spot where the guy plowed into the 10 motorcycles.  There were a bunch of bikes and people on the side of the road paying their respects and I actually felt bad not stopping when we went by.

We rode down to Holy Hill with our friends.  In all the times I/we have driven past Holy Hill, I have never actually gone there.  Technically, I still haven't been there because it was hot and we didn't actually walk up and take in the view - maybe another time.

Then we took a detour to West Bend to get the Harley there off our list and took the scenic route back through the kettle moraine.  It was a great ride and we did about 200 miles. 

Before we headed off to Holy Hill, ,we rode to Fond du Lac and went to Schmitty's Oar House for some lunch.  The food was awesome and HUGE for the price.  We both got a tuna melt and it came with fries.  The burgers were 1/2 pound and came on big square buns.  Definitely a visit again place.

After our ride back through the kettle moraine, we stopped at Kelley Country Creamery.  Amazing and overwhelming wouldn't even cut it.  They had so many flavors and optional ways to eat your ice cream that there is no way this is a one visit place.  Even better, if you sit outside and eat, you can look over the field and see the barn where the cows are that supply the milk for the ice cream.

All in all a great ride with good food and good friends and about 1990 miles on the bike.
