50th - Saturday Trolley Tour

On Saturday, September 7, at 10 am, 27 enthusiastic classmates, friends and family boarded a Door County Trolley for a 3.5 hour tour under the able guidance of John Berns. Here are some photos from our tour.  If anyone else has photos they'd be willing to share send them to sbhs63@gmail.com and we'll post them.  thanks to Jean Isaksen, Harold Isaksen, and Bob Fuller for the pictures below. Special thanks to John Scheisser and Sherry Suesse Peterson for making this Trolley ride possible.

Starting at the High School, we traveled through the east and west side of Sturgeon Bay, passing many places from the 1960's. We learned that Corpus Christy was $1000 short from having the Rolling Stones at a dance in the 60s.  We drove along Bay Shore Drive noting many new homes and, of course, the beautiful scenery. A visit at the stone quarry was followed by travel toward Egg Harbor, making a right turn to Carlsville and a stop at the Door Peninsula Winery.  

From there we headed to Cave Point where we noted how low the waters of Lake Michigan have become and all the fun times we had in this area. No one felt like jumping in during our visit.

A brief drive took us to Portage Park and then to the Sturgeon Bay Ship Canal.
