Downtown Racine: Where Old Meets New Meets Old
Whereas many of the residential areas of Racine have a modern flair to them (especially the farther away from downtown you go), downtown Racine still holds an Old Wisconsin flavor all about it. Racine is most well know for the S.C. Johnson building designed by Frank Lloyd Wright, was also the birthplace of legendary actor … Continue reading
Wisconsin Cheese Mart In Milwaukee
Wisconsin Cheese Mart in Milwaukee (just down the street from Usingers) is the kind of cheese shop that John Cleese would be more than welcomed to visit since they have nearly every kind of cheese he could possibly list off. Not only that, most of the cheeses here are many of the Wisconsin originals made … Continue reading
Miss America 2012 Returns To Wisconsin
While there are several events that we will be covering with Wisconsin’s very own Miss America Laura Kaeppeler (from Kenosha), here are a few photos from the first of those events in Wauwatosa where she was part of a fashion show at a local mall.

Usingers Sausages: Famous For A Reason

Lexxy Cow At The Wisconsin Capital Building
Last fall after we had the opportunity to interview Mayor Soglin of Madison for the documentary, our traveling companion mascot Lexxy decided she must have her picture taken at the state capital building, so that’s exactly what we did. She also had to posh it up in our Avis Budget rental for the sake of … Continue reading
There’s Something Fascinating About Old Buildings
When driving around Kenosha last fall we ran past his old industrial factory that begged to be photographed. While no longer in use as a factory, it is still used by local businesses for office space and storage (now called the Clock Tower Place). Even so, it retains all the luster and charm of the … Continue reading
All Good Things… A Packers Season Recap In Fan Photos
There’s really not that much to say about the loss in the playoffs this past weekend, certainly nothing that hundreds of other sports reporters and newscasters haven’t already speculated on or blabbed about so we’re not even going to try. And even with the record-breaking season for wins, points, Rodgers, and more, we’d like to … Continue reading
