La Crosse is the last stop in Wisconsin, on the banks of the Mississippi. La Crosse has several claims to fame, such as: 15th Best Place for Doing Business in America, 7th Safest Metro Area in the USA and 13th of the Top 25 Best Green Places to live in America.
There’s a bluff above downtown called Granddad Bluff, over 600 feet above the valley, where you can get a great panoramic view of downtown La Crosse, the Mississippi, Minnesota and Iowa. Take a look at the view from Granddad Bluff:
A nice woman on the bluff recommended a great place for lunch above the La Crosse People's Food Co-op on 5th Street in Downtown called Hackberry’s Bistro. Highly recommended. Our server told us that there is a big motorcycle event going on , and Jay Leno, Sandra Bullock and her husband Jesse James are in town. No sightings the bistro, though.
About Me
- Ken and Sandy
- Road Trip 2013 (RT13) marks our 5th road trip in six years. This year: Shenandoah, the Blue Ridge Parkway and the Mid-Atlantic Coast. Last year was the South. We did the Northeast in 2010 and the Southwest 2009. After 2008, we learned to cover fewer miles in order to spend more time in each place. More like a vacation; less like The Amazing Race.
