Best Car for Teens in Racine, Milwaukee and Southeast Wisconsin

Many of us don’t truly know the meaning of stress or anxiety until we’re responsible for and care about an early driver on the road. During this time, your child has gone from having his or her world extend from the 5-mile radius he or she could walk/bike/bus by themselves to a seemingly endless world that stops only at the Panama Canal to the South and the Bering Strait to the North.

Car-Wash Frequency for Winter in Wisconsin

Talking to those who live in warmer states about winter can make you feel like you’re missing out on something. Those who don’t have to deal with a long and snowy winter often wax poetic about the beauty of a fresh coat of snow or the ethereal charm of winter and cozy nights in.

Unfortunately, they’re forgetting about the fact that for every quiet field of blanketed snow, there are 25 roads lined with deep-brown sludgy run-off that grabs on to any passing vehicle and latches on to wheel wells, fenders, etc. threatening to eat through everything you love. (more…)

Affordable Vehicles with AWD in Southeast Wisconsin

We’ve written on this blog plenty of times about how living in Southeast Wisconsin is not for the faint of heart. While our fall and spring seasons are international highlights that bring vivid colors to the local communities and our plentiful nature parks, winter is how we pay for it. Seemingly longer every year, winter kicks off with a snowfall and then that snow just stays on the ground – usually all year. While a few warm-ups might melt the snow, the brown grass underneath is rarely visible for more than a couple of days. (more…)

2018 Peak Fall Color in Racine, Wisconsin

Living in Southeast Wisconsin is a mixed bag when it comes to the natural world. While we enjoy plenty of beautiful outdoor sights and destinations year-round, the fact persists that around five months out of the year, the outdoors can easily harm you seriously just by being cold. While winter brings several of its own charms along with it, easing into the season is a must for those of us who will spend four of those five months missing the warm weather and long days of summer.

Living in Southeast Wisconsin is a mixed bag. On the one hand, you have plenty of amazing things to do during the summer, two gigantic metroplexes within a couple of hours’ drive and the beautiful shores of Lake Michigan. On the other hand, winter arrives and shuts down most outdoor plans (that aren’t snow-shoeing, cross-country skiing or shoveling) for about five months out of the year. (more…)
