adrift

if you've visited wisconsin, you might have discovered that there's rather a lot to do there. you might also have noted that some of the things to do are rather strange, bet let's hope you've enjoyed yourself nonetheless while doing them. everyone notices how friendly people in wisconsin are. i think beyond mere friendliness, people in wisconsin--for whatever reason--must simply like other people and perhaps life in general. i think it's with the desire to share any strange little bit of life discovered in one's very own backyard that i feel the most like my statespeople.


the southwest corner of wisconsin was never touched by glaciers and so it has become known as the driftless zone. it's quite geologically interesting that glaciers never touched this land, but please don't let that stop it from touching you. go on, enjoy unglaciated southwest wisconsin:

• dr. evermor and the forevertron
  
  



• the mustard museum
  
  



• cave of the mounds
  
  



• mount horeb, troll capital of the world
  
  


• mazo beach, nude beach or battleground for your soul
  
  



• house on the rock (not to be confused with rock in the house)
  
  


• fort crawford medical museum (heck visit all of the wisconsin museums!)
  
  

• merrimac ferry (so exciting i interrupted the writing of this to go ride it)
  
  



• little switzerland (that's really just new glarus, wisconsin, they make BEER)
  
  



• circus world, *america's* circus museum (america, not to be confused with china)
  
  



• little norway
  
  



• little cornwall (ok i don't know if anyone even calls it that, but mineral point and pendarvis have been home to many a cornish miner)
  
  



• taliesin, frank lloyd wright's home and studio
  
  

and there ends our brief tour of southwest wisconsin, can you believe there's plenty more to see! someday soon i'll take you on a virtual tour a little further north to devil's lake (my favorite single spot in wisconsin) and wisconsin dells. but we won't stray too far north until you're better acclimated, it gets scary up there. just check out wisconsin death trip...
