Sundays in My City is a chance to cruise around the world investigating all kinds of interesting places without ever leaving the comfort of your own computer.
Come with me today to the Red Mill.
.
.
The Red Mill is a quaint little eatery tucked quietly along a rural stretch of County HH (we do that here in Wisconsin - we name our county roads in a very alphabetical manner) near Stevens Point, Wisconsin.
Aside: Fisherhubby says he can't drive on nor even find roads like HH because he doesn't know his aa bb cc's.
Now back to the matter at hand:
.
.
I don't know if it's called the Red Mill because it's red or if it is red because it's called the Red Mill.
.
.
Not being one, I didn't park in this spot.
But NEITHER did I advertise the fact - - - not in THIS state anyway.
;-)
.
This Bucky Badger was guarding the parking lot.
I could park by him as I AM his biggest fan.
.
.
There were all kinds of other sentinels watching the parking lot.
.
.
Most of them were of the bear variety.
.
.
We are up here just south of the Northwoods
.
.
And bears have occasionally been known to make their way down into our vacinity.
Especially THIS kind of bear.
.

The yard behind the Red Mill was a quiet, inviting oasis
.
.
Where I found this miniature replica of the Red Mill's namesake.
.
.
There were a variety of inviting dining areas
.
.
Scattered about the Mill
.
.
Both indoors and out.
My dinner was delicious and didn't entirely empty my purse.

Thanks to Unknown Mami

The totems are so fun, very eclectic. The Mill looks like a lovely place for dinner.
nice carvings. Looks like a great place to go. Maybe I could start on AA then BB, CC, DD, EE, FF -- That really is the craziest road naming I've seen. Maybe it keeps you from going ZZZZZzzzz
What a neat, unique little place. I like it!
Those sentinels are cool!
Have a great week!

Looks like a great place to dine!
Practical and ecological to travel like this!
Have a good week!
We were on Wisconsin soil yesterday in Prairie du Chien. A few posts to follow.
It looks like a nice relaxing place. The town my husband grew up in used letters and numbers for the street names. Think how many old timers missed having a street named after them!
What a great place and you gotta love the alphabet road names!
Love that place Keetha!
And don't all states name their roads with double letters? hehe. We live by F you know but then it turns to FF.
I haven't seen a real bear this summer but Dan did up by Spooner.
I guess I can be bear free one year, my heart likes it.
Hugs friend,

At first I thought this would be about the Red Mill in Waupaca ... surprised to know there is another Red Mill in Central Wisconsin. Looks charming & I'll have to ask my sister if she has ever eaten there.
The red Mill is pretty interesting, did you ever find out about the name ?
What a great place. You know now that I think about it, I'm not sure I know my aa, bb, ccs either.
