Continued hiking the Ice Age Trail on Sunday. Started where I left off from last weekend and walked another 4 miles down the trail.
Took a break after 2.5 miles at the New Fane Shelter:

The trail is still really green in spots:

And not so much in others:

A little more trail art:

Rest and turn around point:

Morning hike on the bluff and shore of Lake Michigan, Lions Den Gorge Nature Center, Grafton, WI:
First view of the lake.

Most of the leaves are down.

Bridge over the gorge.

Stairs winding through the gorge and down to the beach.

Beach view.

Leaves!

Perfect blue sky!

16,000 mile maintenance. Oil change, rotate tires and general once over. Also installed the hard top for the winter since we are getting our first real snow today.

Thanks guys, Oscar is still so stock, but thats ok. I'm on track for the slowest build ever! [emoji3] We ended up with an inch of snow and took a pic after running the shovel across the drive. It might be a little early, but Merry Christmas!

Don't worry about the slowness. I bought mine so I could take my new wife out and explore. It seems that you are sharing that with your daughter. These times are better than any mod would ever be!

Yep, slow is better than too fast. Take your time and do your research. You'll be glad later for sure!

Slow is hard. I feel your pain on that, but it's fun wheeling them stock, too.

Two weeks ago, a foot of snow. Last weekend, a foot of snow. Today 45 degrees. Bye, bye snow! It's not often I get to hand wash Oscar during the month of December in Wisconsin.

Getting ready to pull the trigger on a winch. Looking to get a Warn VR8000 or the New "and Improved" VR8. I would like to mount the winch hidden inside my stock JK bumper so off came the cover, hooks and steel bumper plate for some measuring and cyphering. I'm surprised at how thin the steel is!

Sounds like a cool project. The jeep looks great but I have one question... Where's the rust! Haha
