Two summers ago, I spent a week photographing in Door County, Wisconsin for a story in Minnesota Monthly. Door County is Wisconsin's thin peninsula that juts out into Lake Michigan. The landscape and architecture is reminiscent of Cape Cod. This photo was taken at the Rusche family produce stand near Sturgeon Bay - it's hard to imagine that its changed much over time. It wasn't cherry season at the time (something the area is known for), but the father went into the house to bring me some frozen cherries. They were simply put in the freezer after being picked, and wow, was that delicious and refreshing...
