The Lambeau Leaper Himself

Great to see LeRoy Butler, the founder of the Lambeau Leap, at the Barron High School for a homecoming pep rally and inspirational talk.  I just happened to be in the area when he was there, so I stopped in and gave him a copy of the Cheeseheads DVD.  In return, he gave me a … Continue reading

The Cheese Curd Capital Reigns

On a recent drive through Ellsworth to pick up some cheese curds for sampling at our River Falls Public Library show, the sun was lighting up the Ellsworth Creamery so wonderfully that I had to snag some new pictures.  Plus, they deserve a bit of spotlighting for sponsoring our shows with many wonderful flavors of … Continue reading

The Awesomeness Of Don Q

While down in Dodgeville for an event at the Dodgeville Public Library in April, I finally got to stay at a hotel I’d been driving past and wanting to stay at for years, the Don Q Inn.

Football On The Horizon at Camp Randall

With Badger Football on the horizon, it’s only fitting to add a few photos of previous visits (and there are many) to Camp Randall Stadium.  What an amazing Cheeseheads venue this place is.  I get chills every time I am there. * * *

A Dream Theatre Come True

One of my dream theatres to play the film in when I was making it was the Al Ringling Theatre in Baraboo, Wisconsin.  Why?  Because it was an original “Movie Palace” when it opened in 1915, that it is a legendary landmark in Wisconsin, because it was built by the world famous Al Ringling.  Yes … Continue reading

Mars & Me & Marcol

A fun day at Mars Cheese Castle in Kenosha with the Marcol man and myself.  Okay, so a lot of M word play going on here, but it opened itself up to it.  Even more amazing was having our names up in lights on the Mars lighted freeway sign (see photos) overlooking the Interstate 94 corridor … Continue reading

Anew Is New And Not

Chester was there, a football showed up, maybe it was, perhaps not, but it was a fun day all the same in Shawano. * * *
