Here’s how I spent an afternoon in Sheboygan!
I was in the mood for some comfort food, so I sat down for lunch at the Black Pig for their truffle mac and cheese and bacon. I walked past a number of street art pieces on my way to Sheboygan’s cute shops that dot 8th street. I stopped in Olivü 426, Sully’s Ride Shop, Aventuron, and Mainstream Boutique. Next I wandered through the exhibits and washrooms at the John Michael Arts Center with a coffee in hand from their cafe.
How should I spend my next afternoon?
