[BeerTeam]

Formerly The West Bend Art Museum
now known as the Museum of Wisconsin Art
houses the largest permanent collection of the works of 19th Century artist Carl Von Marr

whose descendants settled in the West Bend area.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carl_von_Marr,

The Art Museum also hosts traveling shows of artwork of all description throughout each year.
The Museum is located in the heart of downtown West BendÔÇÖs cultural district,
just west and across the street from the Washington County Courthouse.

"The Museum of Wisconsin Art's Early Wisconsin Art Collection and Archives
begins with European and American settlement in Wisconsin
and concludes around 1950.

It is the Wisconsin's only comprehensive collection and archives representing that era of Wisconsin artists." WB Art Museum Site.

"The museum is poised to become one of "28 to 35" regional art museums throughout the United States"

Kohler-Andrae State Park
two miles south of Sheboygan on County Highway V

This large State Park is famous for it's sand dunes, pristine beach and nice surf, along with rare vegetation.

When You arrive at the State Park, just ask the Ranger at the fee booth, if you can drive thru.
The Rangers will let you do a drive thru,
because most Wisconsin State Parks uses State gas tax money to maintain the roadway.
All of the California style scenery was shot from the seat of my motorbike while on my drive thru
