Moi's Great Midwest Top 10 List: What I learned while in Wisconsin

The scent of morning rain, lilacs in bloom, fire flies dancing in the summer nights sky, skinny dipping in the quarry pond with your true love, 4th of July picnics, the scent of burning leaves, the first snow flakes and mulled cider.

 
10. It is only in Wisconsin that people are concerned about how this years pumpkin crop will be.

9. Only here in the Midwest can you experience a true fish fry, complete with freshly made tartar sauce, rye bread, fries dripping with grease, homemade coleslaw, and locally freshly caught fish.

8. Where else can you ride your horse to the cheese shop for fresh, warm, squeaky cheese-curds.

7. The people of Wisconsin are different then any other, they are the hardest working, genuine, real, sure you have your petty ones, cranky ones and even deadbeats but nothing beats the hospitality of the people here. Whether it be family, friends or strangers.

6. The drivers here are like those in Paradise, minus the high amount of U-Turns. They sit at the green lights and sleep I think?

5. Only here can you be amazed and delighted with Amish made refreshing homemade ice-cream, farm fresh eggs, smokey slab thick bacon and peaceful hot summer nights.

4. In Wisconsin, Sundays are filled with nachos, wieners in the sauce, Shlitz, green and gold bread rings, BBQ and the Packers.

3. Kick ass Pizza

2. Corn Mazes that span 10 acres, apple orchards, hay rides, and tapped maple syrup.

1. Family: blood IS thicker then water.
