Public Enemies starring Johnny Depp

"Almost surrounded by water, Minocqua qualifies as the quintessential resort-area town - the one most people dream of when they're stuck in a cubicle on a sunny day. Popcorn- and fudge-scented air hums with the buzz of speedboats and the putter of pontoons. Giggles and shrieks ripple from Torpy Beach, a popular park and playground along main street. Families meander in and out of shops and gather around lakeside tables. Many return year after year. "It's tradition," say Carrie Helwig of Lee's Summit, Missouri, whose husband has vacationed here since childhood. Now they come with their own children. "We won't go anywhere else.""
