You’ll �nd it easy here – Milwaukee.
Milwaukee is a wonderful city toexplore by foot. Whether youare a jogger, a hiker, or astroller, our town has tremen-dous parks and neighborhoods.
You will find Milwaukee's lake-front an ideal place to begin.Lake Michigan's shoreline isnaturally beautiful, and thoughtful leaders accentuat-ed the beauty by making sure vast expanses remainopen public spaces. Museums, memorials, and thefestival grounds are great walking destinations alongthe lakefront.
Milwaukee has unique neighborhoods and commer-cial districts to discover. Consider a walk through BayView, the Third Ward, Martin Luther KingDrive, or Brady Street to get a better understanding ofwhat makes Milwaukee special.
There are a number of trails in the city. Along one ofthem, the Hank Aaron trail in the Menomonee Valley,you can walk to the city's newest park, Three Bridges.
When you're on foot in Milwaukee you will find lots ofpeople out there with you, enjoying every step.

By JERRY SLASKEKEY Milwaukee golf editor
SEPTEMBER AND OCTOBER are ideal months forgolf in Wisconsin. The bugs are gone, the humidityhas moved on, and the temperatures are as com-fortable as listening to Dean Martin, the king ofcool.
Sure, there are some nasty days to let us know thatwinter is around the corner, but, for the most part,this is the time to tee it high and let it fly.
Many courses also have fall discounts – particular-ly this year since the spring was so wet – and thecourses aren’t as crowded. Moreover, the landscapeis bursting with color as the foliage turns to golds,oranges, reds, and browns. It all adds up to agolfer’s delight.
Here are a few favorites at this time of year:
• Brown Deer: A former stop on the PGA tour’sregular season schedule, Brown Deer is alwaysstunning and the conditions are impeccable withextremely fast and true greens. Thousands ofmature trees line every fairway of this coursebuilt in 1929. 414-352-8080, milwaukeecountygolfcourses.com
• The Bull at Pinehurst Farms: There are enoughtrees, streams and ponds, and elevation changesat this spectacular Jack Nicklaus Signature coursein the northern Kettle Moraine area to make youmarvel at Mother Nature. It’s well worth thedrive to Sheboygan Falls. 920-467-1500, golfthebull.com
• Erin Hills: Very little earth was moved by manto build this huge brute highlighted by beautifulrolling hills and meadows. It was the site of the2012 US Amateur and will host the 2017 USOpen. Because the only structures visible are theIrish manor-style clubhouse and the spires of thebasilica at Holy Hill, Erin Hills makes you feelone with nature. 262-670-8600, erinhills.com
•Morningstar: Like Washington County, this coursesits high so the views are awesome, especially fromthe clubhouse. It’s a gorgeous track and one of thebest challenges in the area – or anywhere. 262-662-1600, golfthestar.com
• Nagawaukee: A wonderful tree-lined layout, butthe back nine is especially pretty at this time of theyear. Overlooking Pewaukee Lake, It has enoughups and downs to rival any roller coaster. The coloris spectacular. This course does an amazing job ofkeeping the fairways and even the rough clear ofleaves. 262-367-2153, golfwaukeshacounty.com
• Washington County: Although this Arthur Hillscourse (bent grass tee to green) is links style withnary a tree on the property, it sits high above PikeLake State Park and the northern Kettle Moraine.It’s a stunning vista as you stand at the clubhouseand look toward the spires of the Basilica at HolyHill. 262-670-6616, golfwcgc.com
Other fine courses to play in the fall include:The Bog, 262-284-7075, golfthebog.com An Arnold Palmer design impeccably manicured thatincludes wetlands, woods, and wildlife habitat; Brighton Dale Links, 262-697-4653, golfbrightondale.com 45 challenging holes in the midst of the bucolic BongState Recreational Area; Broadlands, 262-392-6320, broadlandsgolfclub.com Not particularly scenic, but a fine bent-grass layouttol challenge your complete game.Also: Fire Ridge, 262-375-2252, fireridgegc.comWonderful track without a weak hole in the bunchand superb conditions; Ironwood, 262-538-9900, ironwoodgolfcourse.com 36 testy holes with tough greens and lots of trees,wetlands, and rolling hills make this a fall favorite;Kettle Hills (original 18), 262-628-0200, kettlehills.com – Interesting, tough layout amongrolling hills covered in trees; and Rock River Hills, 920-485-4990, rockriverhills.com Short, but challenging layout that sits aside the beau-tiful, water fowl-inhabited Horicon Marsh.

FOR SPORTS FANS and BBQ lovers in Milwaukee,the place to be in any season is Saz’s State House.
In 1976, Steve Sazama – better known as Saz – start-ed a Milwaukee tradition by opening Saz’s StateHouse in an unlikely location next to railroad tracksin the Miller Valley just west of the Miller Brewingcomplex.
Thirty-seven years latertrains still pass theenlarged restaurant, butSaz continues to presideat 5539 W. State Street,where fans gather to eat,drink and discuss thePackers, Brewers, Bucksand all professional andamateur sports teams..
Saz’s motto for restaurantsuccess is “focusing onwhat you do best” and he continues to preside dailyover his restaurant. But his organization has expand-ed into serving its specialty products at festivals,catering tailgate parties and other events and sellingpopular menu items and sauces in leading grocerystores.
Today, Saz’s State House offers a wide variety ofmenu choices. A gluten-free menu and a great vari-ety of kid-friendly plates meet customer needs.Recent additions to the menu include the “JuicyLucy” Stuffed Burger and an Avocado CapreseSalad.
But the emphasis remains on ribs. Combinations
include Steak ‘n Ribs, Chicken ‘n Ribs, JumboShrimp ‘N Ribs and a Texas BBQ combo withsmoked andouille sausage, beef brisket and one-third rack of baby back ribs. Or try new items likethe BBQ Brisket Bruschetta or Asian BBQ Salmon.
While the restaurant located just north of theBrewers’ Miller Park is first base for of the operation,Saz’s playing field has expanded:
• In 1985 Saz’s began serv-ing its specialty products atSummerfest and theWisconsin State Fair, evolv-ing into Saz’s Festivals.Now the number one ven-dor at both Summerfest andthe State Fair, Saz’sFestivals also serves morethan 18 other major festi-vals.
• In 1990, Saz’s began serving BBQ ribs and sand-wiches at tailgate parties and other events. Startingwith a few employees, a truck and a grill, Saz’sCatering became the largest off-premise cateringcompany in Wisconsin, serving more than 1,500corporate and social events annually, from formalgatherings of 20 to companywide events of 20,000.
• In 1993, Saz’s began offering its most popularmenu items and sauces in leading grocery storesaround the state. Today, many stores offer Saz’sSignature BBQ Baby Back Ribs; Original, VidaliaOnion and Sassy BBQ Sauces; Saz’s FestivalFamous Mozzarella Marinara and Saz’s ChiveFries. Saz’s sauces also are available in selected

And in2010 in the season that brought Green Bay anotherSuper Bowl victory, Saz’s became the “Official BBQPartner” of the Packers.
• in 2010, Saz’s Fine Catering at the Marcus Centerbecame the exclusive food and beverage service forsocial and corporate events, weddings and galas atthe Marcus Center for the Performing Arts in down-town Milwaukee.
