Did you know there are only 9 outdoor theaters left in Wisconsin? In the 1950s there were 79. Richland Center is a short distance from Heron's Landing's to be able to experience watching a movie outdoors. It is a blast! There is also the American Players Theater an outdoor auditorium in Spring Green, approximately 25 minutes away.

We are getting close to having the landscaping completed🎉 We were fortunate to get our plants big Sis The Avoca Mercantile. Love the colors, going for sunrise/sunset theme with lavender, rosemary, thyme, sage, basil, oregano and parsley for natural bug repellent, seasoning and the scents. I want to make sauce!

One of our favorite summer treats at Heron's Landing, an Orange creamsicel float made with Point Premium Orange Cream soda. Childhood memories 🧡 crafted in Wisconsin and one of the oldest breweries in the nation.

BREAKING: In response to a series of solar flares and CME's (Coronal Mass Ejections), NOAA has issued a Strong (G3) Geomagnetic Storm Watch for June 4-5. While each event is unique, G3-level storms can be capable of driving the northern lights southward across mid-latitude states. The map below offers a loose representation of what might be expected (naked eye vs. camera-only) during a G3 event.

Remember, these are forecasts only. Exact timing and magnitude of impacts are still unknowns, so these forecasts should be used loosely until if/when energy arrives and we can better sample what we're looking at. For now, this is an exciting time amidst what has been a relatively quiet stretch recently. Stay tuned!
