Fountain City and Alma Wisconsin

We took a short trip to Wisconsin and saw the Rock in the House in Fountain City.

We stayed at Hawks View Cottages, which was really an amazing place. The cottages are built into the bluff and have stilts on the side looking down. The Marsh Hawk cottage was very clean and comfortable.

After checking out the next day, we went to Alma, Wisconsin. My wife enjoyed the shopping and the view from Buena Vista Park.

I was impressed by the collection of ancient weaponry at the Castle Rock Museum.

Definitely off the "beaten path," in a spruce bog in Northern Minnesota, this site boasts an incredible array of scientific equipment that is supported by an amazing technological infrastructure! There are control sites and some of the chambers have added heat, carbon dioxide, or both. A lot of equipment and experimental testing goes on 24/7, 365 days per year. These guys know their stuff. The 10 chambers are connected ...
