A few years ago, we decided to take a chance on Door County and fell in love with the area. The pace of life was much slower. Nature’s blessings abounded everywhere in the open expanses of water, forests, and hills. The boats, sailboats, yachts, lighthouses, wildlife, and landscapes drew us in. We loved visiting there. Each day just before sunset, the world stopped. Friends and family found a bench or a westward view and people took the time to watch the kaleidoscope of colors that unfolded in the sunset. Once the sun had spent its glory, and the glow had disappeared as it sunk below the horizon, people wandered ever so slowly back to their vehicles, houses, or accommodations and settled in for the evening. The world began to turn again. My family and I love the sunsets and wanted to share them with the rest of the world, so I decided to write a book about the sunsets of Door County, Wisconsin, in the Midwestern United States.
