The Mississippi river road. Runs up and down the river from somewhere in Wisconsin, south through Iowa and so on. Scenic with some twisties and hills. Come up from the south, to the Wisconsin river, and then cut over to Madison, (state Capitol), and check out the Capitol building grand rotundra. If you time it right, (late August-early July), you can then go east to Milwaukee and check out Miller Park, where the Milwaukee Brewers play, then on to the art museum on Lake Michigan, right next to the Summerfest grounds. Midwest's largest summer music festival. Good times. If you have 3 hours left, then go north to Green Bay and see the hallowed grounds of Lambeau Feild, home of the defending Super Bowl Champion Packers. They have a tour where you see inside the playing field, and they have the Packers hall of fame. See the 4 Super Bowl trophies. Then cruise up into Door County, (the finger of Wisconsin) Lots of old world stuff to see, and very scenic. Or, head south to Chicago to see the Sears tower. A paid tour to the viewing deck on top is well worth the time and money. While in Wisconsin, stop and enjoy a delicious Culvers double cheeseburger.
