Summer's Last Stand

Though I am excited for  another school year, the end of summer is always bittersweet. The Dargatz Family likes to ride out summer in style so we trekked to the Dells for a weekend of some of our favorite things: hiking and history. Enjoy a look at our trip in picture format. 

P.S.  -We also stopped at Stand Rock (State Natural Area) and Rocky Arbor State Park but didn't take any pictures.
