Other points of interest..
** Bluff School is the house on the corner (historical.. my relatives went to this one room school house)
** More relatives of mine are in Pine Grove Cemetery
** Head to N44 15.610 W89 31.149 (the creek where I met my namesake a cute lil otter darted in my face as I swam there..)
please note.. the DNR blew up the beaver dams long ago so now the creek is overgrown and the trout are gone. Didn't wish to put a cache here because it was soooo pretty back then.
