Road Trip: Wisconsin / Illinois border
If you need a staycation with the family, but have only a day or two to spare, a quick jaunt down I-94 to the Wisco / Illini border might be your golden ticket. Although summertime opens up more options, this trip is a winner regardless of the season.

KeyLime Cove corners market on convenience
Because KeyLime Cove is relatively new -- it opened in February 2008 -- the designers were able to critique already-existing water parks and copy or improve on the them. Hence, the smart layout and attentiveness of staff members make navigation a breeze. Best of all, it's only 45 miles from Milwaukee.
