Holy Hill


Holy Hill
Originally uploaded by stuffle.
Yesterday was a beautiful fall day. Lisa and I took the opportunity to go to Holy Hill. If you are ever in the south eastern part of WI, and are looking for something to do, I would highly suggest a visit to Holy Hill. The drive is beautiful, especially in the fall, and the church grounds themselves are impressive.

We essentially spend the day on the grounds, touring the church, and the chapels. We also climbed up in the observation tower, though Lisa did not go all the way to the top (it does get a little freaky if you don't like heights).

After lunch, we walked the trail where they have the stations of the cross. Not being Catholic, I am unfamiliar with the tradition and the prayers and petitions for each station. However, if you have read the Gospels or even just seen "The Passion of the Christ", the scenes depicted at the different stations will be familiar to you.
