The most beautiful food combined with the most ugliest customers. I would eat the gently caress out of those sandwiches.

So uh why is there a stave church randomly somewhere in Wisconsin? I know there's a lot of Norwegian immigrants up there, but we sort of stopped building them in the 1300s. Rescued original? Replica for tourist purposes?

You think you got some kind of patent on the gloomiest place to worship Jesus Christ?

Door County, WI
Population 30,066
Land area 482 sq mi
density: whatever the division of the above numbers results in

for some reason this map doesnt have a county location in state but it's the erect penis of Wisconsin


Oh hey my old stomping grounds. I lived in Green Bay for 6 years and worked up in Door County as a park ranger for another two.

I've seen so many fuckin tourists eat poo poo and almost go into the lake at this exact spot.

Off-season this place was super chill. We would load up all the employees at the park and head here for huge piles of wings and pitchers of beer multiple times a week before tourist season started.

It's a replica:

quote:

The chapel is modeled after the Garmo stave church at Maihaugen in Lillehammer, Norway

I guess. It's located on the grounds of Björklunden, some facility situation for classes and retreats for Lawrence University in Appleton, WI.















This was the bar we drank at most nights after work. It was a loving heap, but the beer was super cheap and ice cold, and they had 50 cent mystery shots, so for a pile of just out of college kids working in the heat 10 hours a day, this was loving nirvana.



Door County is a weird place. It's a bunch of country folk living their best rural life smashed up against insane mobs of richass white people coming up from Milwaukee and Chicago from Memorial Day to Labor Day to pretend they're doing some east coast cape cod coastal village bullshit.

The state parks are loving gorgeous, and if it wasn't for tourist season, I'd love to live up there.

Fair enough. It was just an incongruous thing to randomly run into in the US countryside.

I will not shut up about the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers. I talk about them all the time and work them into every conversation I have. I built a shrine in my room for the yellow one who died because sadly no one noticed because she died around 9/11. Wanna see it?

Something that doesn't come up here but I think about all the time I do this is: "Why are they taking this photograph?" Like look at this one. If this were a movie this would be slipped in to a yellow envelope and used as blackmail.

It took quite a while and I was almost convinced that they had never actually sold a pizza but I finally found one

It looks very...flat

How the hell would that work? My mom had a pitcher like that when I was a kid, and we used to drop it and it'd bounce all the way across the kitchen. It's made a weird stretchy plastic that has a ton of give.

My grandfather used specrtral analysis for local dairies.
I grew up on some of the largest dairy farms in the state of Wisconsin.
My wife is a dairy scientist who specializes in cheeses and yogurt (I can't say exactly WHAT she does, but if you've eaten mass produced cheese or had yogurt in the last 10 years or so? She did that. As in She's the D in R&D) and I still live there.

I DARE you.

I will find you.

I will out dairy you.

I once saw one commercial break on TV that had an ad for diapers (blue liquid), menstruation pads (blue liquid), and then NEW blue jello (identical color)

I did not purchase the new jello
