Ok, not actually in Sheboygan, but in Kohler. Not just for those intersted in toliets. The basement is the history of the Kohler Company and bathrooms in general (you'll find your old avacado green sink there). The main floor is a lot of individual pieces and a wall of toilets. The top floor is designed kitchens and bathrooms. Really is interesting, trust me! And if you don't like it, you didn't lose much, since its free to get in.

Great arts center. Check my travelogue for more pictures. Check out the galleries. Enjoy the courtyard. Take in a theater show. Grab a latte. Make sure you go to the bathroom while there (or look at the washroom pictures on their site). Best thing is it's free to get in!

Ellwood H. May Environmental Park is known to the locals as Maywood It consists of 120 acres and is open year round. There is an ecology center and trails for public use. Maywood hosts environmental programs, community events, recreational outings, summer camps, and field trips. You may also walk the trails your self. The park is a popular destination for school groups, families, and individuals who love nature and the outdoors. We used to take the day care children here form both the migrant head start program and The Sheboygan Child Care Center. It gave the children an opportunity to run off so much of that energy they always seem to have. I wish I was able to share some of many pictures of this area with you, unfortunately I can not due to Head Start confidentiality rules.

This is a great trail for individuals and families a like. Not only is it a connecting point between the harbor and the Old Plank Trail but it also provides access to Sheboygan's business district. It meanders through the various park in Sheboygan, the historic distric, residential district and also the commercial district. You may walk, skate or ride your bike along this trail. This was another favorite destionation for the children of the migrant head start program. Although I have dozens of pictures from here, I am not allowed to use them due to Head Start confidentiality rules.
