Local landmark only now visited by area man.

[feren]

I've driven past it perhaps dozens of times in the last five or six years, but I've never stopped there. That was taken care of last night, however, when lady_curmudgeon and I were just out for a drive in the area -- I can now officially (and with great pride) say that I have been to the Mars' Cheese Castle in Kenosha, WI.

I cite random circumstance and a deep-seated fear that I would die before I visited this local landmark as the reasons for attending.

I couldn't find any pictures of the -actual castle- on their website! Other than the dinky one on the image of their brochure on the main page!

I hope you took your camera, or no one might believe you actually visited! After all, -anyone- can link to a website and say they've been there... ;D

Hey, you live in California or some other country, and you have a Mars Cheese Castle picture?!?! I grew up ten miles from the place and I've only set foot in the place twice. ;P

Congratulations! You now an honorary Wisconsinite.

It's not that remarkable of a place, considering that the last time I was there was about a decade ago, there wasn't much to remember about it, and I haven't been compelled to go back. Yet I should give it another chance. I have driven past it literally hundreds of times.

*edit* You ARE now an honorary Wisconsinite.

Weh, I need more coffee.

I've been there before...and I'm not even a Wisconsite. Mmmmm....Cheeeese...

That sounds like a topic for an Onion article. c.c;

A deep-seated fear I might die in this local landmark will be enough to keep me out of it.

I actually hit the same landmark on Sunday morning. I must have felt the warmth of your presence. I stopped with the intention of getting a bag of cheese curds, but then I did some quick mental arithmetic and calculated that that would have led to me eating a bag of cheese curds.

I'm always fascinated by the summer sausages they have in the shape of beer bottles, with Miller labels on them. I'm not a fan of summer sausage, but I'd like to have a six pack of them in my refrigerator, just so anyone who looks in there will have some idea of who they're dealing with.

Never been there...
