Why? Well, the answer is simple, The Little Crane Cafe . The Little Crane is a home away from for not only locals and tourists but also it's owners, Terry and Andrea Parrish - a couple living out their life long dream and passion together and sharing it with all who walk through their doors. That TLC must be the reason why a post I wrote over two months ago about the Little Crane has

Like any great piece of art The Red Geranium in Mauston will hold your attention in ways you never expected.   With it's welcoming exterior the quaint little shop in Mauston is home to an array of experiences beyond it's front door. Known for their custom framing and gifts, the store frames more than just a picture or two - it tells a story of the local talent here in Juneau County.

The Messenger of Juneau County was first to break the news and it didn't take long before Madison news picked up the story. What story you ask? The story about a mysterious ...hairless...creature being found dead on the side of the road near Elroy, Wisconsin. Now this isn't the first time a Juneau County mystery has reached beyond the county borders, but this one may be one that will be solved

It is high unlikely that when most picture Juneau County in their mind's eye that they envision a  Reiki session. After all let's be serious - most tourists come here looking for an outdoor adventure..camping, fishing, hunting, boating....a simple getaway from the fast driven life of living in the metro areas. For them this area renews their souls - their spirits - it gives them a chance to

Are you going to be in the area this weekend? Make sure you stop by Wa Du Shuda Days in New Lisbon!

One of my favorite places to go and spend some time getting lost in wandering thoughts is the Boorman House in Mauston, WI. The Boorman House is more than just a beautiful old mansion - it houses the collections of the Juneau County Historical Society - A collection that tells the story of this area, and the many families that have called Juneau County home. Although this writer is not

On Saturday mornings you will find  Abigail Fleming doing what she loves to do - creating art that not only focuses on the beauty found in  nature but also the beauty in taking discarded pieces representing the past and giving them a chance to tell a new story. Abigail shares her visions, and her pieces at local farmers' markets in Juneau County - including the one held

I have known the owner of the Fountain Chateau Bed and Breakfast for many years now and I am grateful for that experience as Susanne Solvedt is one of the most hospitable, truly kind and generous people I have ever met.

 The arts within any given community represents the heart of a community - their culture,  their experiences and what they value. Whether it is a painting, a song, or the words written by a writer - the  expression shared is often one that is remembered.  Whether the art you see is in the inner city or on the wall in a rural community - if you look long and allow your

It has been reported that Wisconsin is quickly growing into the state with the fourth largest Amish population. A fact many Juneau County locals wouldn't  in the least find surprising.  Whether you're driving down one of the many country roads through the rolling hills or you stop by any one of the many local farmer's markets or festivals, you will sure to see what we all know,

The Big Crane - two 1/2lb patties with bacon,  BBQ sauce and American cheese served on a bun - only $7.50. That is just one example of the value you can find at the Little Crane Cafe in Necedah, WI.  Considering the price of ground beef and bacon these days there's not a doubt that the Big Crane IS a value, but we all know that quality is essential in whether or not something is

Cinnamon Rolls Close your eyes and think back to being a child in Grandma's kitchen - Can you remember it? Sense it? Can you smell those memories, that sugary sweet scent with traces of vanilla and cinnamon?  - That cozy smell of bread rising? Is your mouth watering? Well, don't worry there is a place you can go in Lyndon Station, Wisconsin where that memory will became a living
