Mike,
Yes, I walked. The clearance on the curved ceiling was such that I'd have hit my head if I strayed from the center, even walking.

Looks like a snowball bush. We have one in our back yard, but not as big.

We also have some hydrangea bushes. They are quite a bit smaller.

Chicory's pale blue flowers are so pleasant. Oh, and you can eat the greens too.

You are getting to pretty familiar territory for me .... my parents used to live on Lake Holcombe, about a 40 minute drive north of Chippewa Falls. My first viewing of the original "Star Wars" was at the Falls drive-in theater, summer of 1977.

Dogwood. Possibly gray dogwood.

I'd never heard of this and I think this is pretty cool too. Thanks for backtracking to show us.

I really like how birch bark peels back like that! And it makes the best fire starter too! Even when wet!

Looks like choke cherries. Not a bad snack except for the big seeds and somewhat bitter/astringent flavor.

Nice! Tree frogs are so photogenic! That one is either an eastern gray tree frog or a Cope's gray tree frog. Really hard to tell without having one of each species side by side.
