The Beautiful Beach

April 30, 1887, Saturday Evening Press
132 years ago, Menasha was the talk of the area, due to it developing its beautiful beach, further enhancing its reputation as a resort of renown.  Whether or not it was truly known as such a place from the Gulf of Mexico to the Great Lakes matters not.  Perhaps it was fanciful hyperbole from an excited local writer.  Needless to say, the entire area benefited from a conveniently located recreational area.  The only thing better could have been a longer season, for the northern Wisconsin clime can be a cruel mistress as we all know.

This marks the 1800th blog post to date.
