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
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
Alice In Dairyland At Lambeau Field
The 70th annual Alice In Dairyland finale ended at Lambeau Field Atrium this year with a fun night of great food, great views, and good competition. And to make clear, the Alice In Dairyland events shift counties from year to year, so it being at Lambeau Field this year was an anomaly that won’t happen … Continue reading
Alice In Dairyland (Botanical Gardens)

Seroogy’s Cheeseheads Chocolate
When In De Pere, you gotta check out Seroogy’s Chocolates, since they’ve been in the Green Bay area since, well, even before the Green Bay Packers. Love this place, and the chocolates, and the people, and of course, hanging with Chester Marcol for the day. They also have tons of other great Wisconsin products, including … Continue reading
Art For The Love Of
These were from a showing we did at the Shell Lake Arts Center in April. What a neat place, an old high school turned art center. And we had a heck of a good turnout too. Lots of fun and friendly conversations. * * * * * *
Martha Merrell’s Is A Marvel
Martha Merrell’s Bookstore in downtown Waukesha is truly a marvel of tenacity in spite of the online order craze most bookstores have faced over the past decade or so. It’s a fun place with lots of unique options, and a great owner who makes your visit wonderfully interesting. Plus they now sell all of our … Continue reading
Shell Lake Arts Center Event
Join us for the Shell Lake Arts Center showing of the documentary on April 1st, 2017. No, this is not an April Fools Day joke, and yes, that tiny town in Northwest Wisconsin does have an arts center as it is quite the artistic, art driven town. Hope to see you there. * * * … Continue reading
Cheeseheads Governance
Got to meet with Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker a few weeks back and give him a DVD of the film. Notice we are in a library (Chetek High School) which is amazing fitting considering how much research it took to make the documentary. * * *
