Say Cheese!We drove through both states in a single day. There is much to see here, but rain kept us moving on. We did spend some time driving through the town of Wisconsin Dells... named for a scenic area shaped dramatically by glaciers and rivers. It is also the self-proclaimed water park capital of the world. More photos will be posted to the galleries later...
Of course we couldn't leave Wisconsin without sampling some of the local cheese! We decided to try some cheddar cheese curds... since you don't see those most places. They squeak when you bite them! It's like a squeaky toy and a tasty treat all in one!
Sparta, Wisconsin claims to be the bicycling capital of America; so of course Sean wanted to stop there. The bicycling museum was closed, but we drove through the town's historic district. Sparta is the site of Wisconsin's first Rail-Trail - an old railroad track converted to a bicycle and multi-use path. It's a very pretty town.
Funny sign alert! A restaurant in Sparta had the following sign posted. Sean tried to take a photo, but his camera battery died:
"Chuck Norris eats Garden Burgers." Who knew?
Blue Earth, MN is home to a 50-foot tall Jolly Green Giant statue!
