    LOVE it! Been living here for 13 years and I love the distinct season changes, the people are so nice and laid back, and we have great festivals in the summer! There's something for everyone year round!

    So...what brought this question on??

    With the exception of my 9 years of military service I am a WI kid through and through! I love WI and just wanted to get a feel for how others might feel about it...

    Thanks for responding!

    The winters and summers can be brutal, I do not miss them! :-) Fall was my favorite time there.

    I've lived here all my life - central Wisconsin - and it definitely is God's country. The changing of the seasons is awesome and always brings a sense of "newness". Spring feels like a new awakening, summers bring warm weather (and lots of outside work), fall is the 'harvest" and time to get prepared for the winter, and winter with the snow and cold can be rough but standing in the woods on skis after a snowfall and listening to the stillness and taking in the beauty of nature is indescriable. And of course, there are the Green Bay Packers, Milwaukee Brewers, and Wisconsin Badgers......

    My son is in college in Milwaukee, so that's the only place I've been there, but I love it! What's not to love about cheese curds, beer, baseball and football? I had a great time there, and he's loving it.

    Oh....and my friend, Leah Vukmir is in the state senate, so I love it even more!

    Beer, cheese, brats, Aaron Rogers and Ryan Braun. Seriously, what's not to love?

    Did I mention all you Harley fans can give Wisconsin a round of applause?

    Absolutely love it! I will soon move there and then live within 2 blocks of one of the best cheese factories. And close to several breweries. Yeah Wisconsin!

    I love this state. The changing seasons, the beautiful landscapes we have like the Dells. Tons of parks, bike trails, walking trails, etc. The City of MIlwaukee has tons of stuff to do (museums, zoo, the lakefront festivals and brewery tours) , the Harley Davidson Anniversary parties where a tons of Harley's are roaring around the city and of course the Packers. It's truely a unique experience tailgating at Lambeau and walking into that stadium with it's great history and watching a game.

    & this is why I love Wisconsin, lived here my whole life, but not fond of this drought.


    THINGS I LOVE ABOUT WISCONSIN!!

    1) the people- ALWAYS willing to help, always kind, caring, pro-active, open-minded and fair, willing to hear you out nicely even if they disagree with you
    2) the weather- yes I said weather. Autumn is beautiful, summers scorch only occassionally. I love cold weather and snow and always get a hearty laugh at my school when seeing the looks of shock from Indians/Jamaicans/Africans who have to bundle up for the first time. It's hot weather that really BLOWS... cold weather you can warm up with a nice fire and some cuddling!
    3) the landscape- WI is lush and green, with beautiful forests and lakes and many amazing geological wonders. My favorite region has to be the Baraboo Hills..what about yours?
    4) the food- quality of produce is EXCELLENT. Wisconsin strawberries are delicious. Strawberries, cranberries, raspberries, pretty much any kind of berry. Can't beat our sweet corn. And of course the quality of beef and dairy products goes without saying.
    5) the traditions of liberalism- Wisconsin votes Democratic, always has, always will! HOO RAH
    6) the roads- give me a country road in WI any day.. you can ride for miles and miles and see nothing but trees, fields, and the hot sun shining on pavement- just like in a car commercial, only real.
    7) the Green Bay Packers. Enough said.
    8) Wisconsin's amazingly unique history and heritage from many many different groups
    9) Sprecher root beer and the strong tradition of beer brewing in the region..Wisconsinites know what real beer is!
    10) Brewers
