The Apostle Islands are located on Lake Superior, off the Bayfield peninsula in northern Wisconsin.
Why are they called "Apostles?" I don't know. There are 22 of them.
Dave and I were in Bayfield for a few days last week. I love going places I've never been before. Dave's been going for many years. We visited with (his) old friends and walked all over the little fishing village.
We took the boat to Madeline Island, the biggest of the Apostles. Why is it called "Madeline." Why isn't it called "John" or "Peter?"
I don't know.
