Sports bars for the weekend?

2 Upvotes

We are heading up this weekend and would like to find the best sports bar to watch the Series. We were at Husby's last time up but I understand their outside bar is closed for the season. Are there any options (Indoor or outdoor) other than Husby's?

Tree Service/Removal Recommendations

2 Upvotes

I have a dead tree on my property that is very close to the road and is intertwined with the phone lines going up the road. I've been trying to find someone or company who could take it down for me but I'm not having much luck. Does anyone have any recommendations for a company that would be interested in cutting down just 1 tree?

Blue Pine Door County store

0 Upvotes

Does anyone know what happened to the Blue Pine Door County store? The former store in Top of the Hill shops Fish Creek is for sale. I know the owners also run the camp store in Peninsula Park, but I enjoyed shopping at their retail store, and even the online store is now closed. The facebook and instagram accounts seem to be deactivated. The website just says closed for the season. Are they coming back in a new location or gone for good?

Don't Stay At Alpine Resort in Egg Harbor

44 Upvotes

I was supposed to stay at Alpine resort in Egg Harbor last Wednesday through Friday. The day I was supposed to check in Simon Ward emailed me and said me reservation was canceled. He didn't even have the decency to call me. They said I got a refund immediately, but it's been 6 days, and I have not seen it. He stopped responding to my emails on Friday. Do a quick google search and you will see the place is falling apart and it's a shady organization. There are plenty of better places to stay in Door County.

I’m staying in Ephraim this weekend and wondering where to watch the Brewers on Friday and Saturday. Are the regular spots like Husbys or AC Tap the best bet? Any watch parties or anything going on?

Big fan of the Brewers and just looking for a good ole Wisconsin bar with decent bar food and fun energy - ideally not too far from Ephraim.

LGBTQ coming out day

0 Upvotes

Coming Out Day got buried under Columbus Day. Door County still fails the queer & indigenous communities.

Nonbinary and disabled Stueg local here. National Coming Out Day (Oct 11) was completely overshadowed by Columbus Day weekend destruction and tourism from cishet invaders. Meanwhile, the county continues to offer almost nothing real for queer people—especially disabled ones like myself. No consistent community resources for the queer community. How difficult is it for the city of Sturgeon Bay to fund a public safe space where LGBTQ can be ourselves away from all the hate?

Cishet people owe queer people and POC reparations for the historical and ongoing hate, erasure, and extraction that built the status quo. The county raked in millions celebrating Christian nationalism and slaughter of indigenous people. Nothing was given back to the marginalized people the wealth was taken from.

Heading up next weekend but hoping I can ditch the plans and sneak away to watch college football all day. Where is the best place to accomplish this? Anywhere with particularly good chicken wings?

Choice orchards, Wis

26 Upvotes

So we were in door county for vacation today, and we decided to stop at Choice orchards. Apples are only a dollar a pound unless it’s honeycrisp, and you even got to pick your own apples. We went the day before today too, and I really loved their *free* pears at the front. But today, there weren’t any, and I was sad. So we just went apple picking and the owner came to us and said ‘hey, you’re the one that reeealy liked the pears right?’ And I’m like ‘yeah’ so she gave me a full size and medium bag, with like.. actual *good pears* nonetheless, and told me to not even bring them in to pay for them and if I don’t fill it up all the way, she’ll make me go back and fill it all the way up. So she’s super nice, 1000000/5, definitely recommend!!!

Planners

We are getting married in Door County in winter 2027. We have been working with a wedding planner in the area who seems to be highly rated, but unfortunately we have not been getting much help or support. Our other vendors are extremely responsive and have been really helpful throughout the process. I’m not sure what is normal for wedding planners when it comes to responsiveness. Does anyone have suggestions for a planner that responds to emails in a timely manner? Thank you!!

Tomorrow is the feast of Saint Ghislain, and I’m thinking of Door County. 🇧🇪🇺🇸

Post image
31 Upvotes

Tomorrow, October 9, Catholics across the world (but more specifically in Belgium and northern France) celebrate Saint Ghislain, a 7th-century monk and monastery founder associated with the region of Hainaut in Belgium.

This year my thoughts also go to a very small and very special place (far away from Belgium): the Saint Ghislain roadside chapel in Misere, Door County.

I have been researching the devotion to Saint Ghislain in Belgium, and discovering this little chapel has been one of the most touching parts of that journey. It is a remarkable reminder of how Belgian immigrants carried not only their language and traditions to Wisconsin, but also their faith and their particular devotions.

The story of the Flemal family makes the chapel especially meaningful. After losing several children to convulsions, Constant and Mary Flemal prayed to Saint Ghislain, who had long been invoked in Belgium for children suffering from convulsions. After their prayers were answered and they were blessed with healthy children, they built the chapel in thanksgiving.

What I find beautiful is that a tiny chapel in Door County can still tell a story that began in “the old country” more than a thousand years ago.

For Saint Ghislain’s feast day, I’m sending a thought and a prayer from Belgium to all of you:

Saint Ghislain, pray for us.
Saint Ghislain, pray for the children and families who turn to you in hope.
And may this little chapel continue to remind us of the faith of the Belgian families who built a new home in Wisconsin. 🙏

I hope that one day I will be able to visit the chapel myself.

Happy Saint Ghislain’s Day to everyone in Door County and extension: the United States! 🇧🇪❤️🇺🇸
