Fall foliage in Eau Claire, WI

 Please welcome Ji Grinsel, our guest blogger for this post. Ji was a student in my ESL class at Chattanooga State Community College. She is a fantastic cook, and we actually had a food blog at one time, doing culinary tours to Atlanta and offering cooking lessons. She shares the beautiful foliage in Eau Claire, where she and her husband currently live.

One of Eau Claire's most popular location is the historical and beautiful Carson Park. We love to go there to immerse ourselves with nature's beauty, and enjoy the peace and quiet. It is just two miles from our house. Last month, we enjoyed the magnificent fall colors at the park. 

Aside from being the top location to watch the Fourth of July Fireworks, Carson Park is also the perfect place to have a picnic, watch a baseball game, fish, kayak and ride a replica train that meanders through scenic woods by Half Moon Lake. History buffs will enjoy learning the history of Eau Claire at the Chippewa Valley Museum.
In the winter, various events such as ice fishing, skating, cross-country skiing, etc. are held here. On this particular day there were people fishing and kayaking, and some taking pictures like me. The colors are no more as we've already had snow. Enjoy the beauty!
