The candlelight snowshoe hike at Door County’s Newport State Park was filled with starlight thanks to the park’s distant location on Wisconsin’s thumb. Pausing at a clearing before the end of the trail gave us a magnificent view of constellations and a sense of mutual appreciation with our fellow humans/hikers. Despite the slippery walk over melted then refrozen snow, I am also proud to say I did not faceplant like the time we tried cross-country skiing up there. On the way into the park, we saw someone’s heart-shaped lights near the driveway, a sweet reminder of Valentine’s Day approaching.
