A Trip to Bobby Nelson's Cheese Shop
Like a lot of you guys, we're fans of Mars Cheese Castle. We make a trip there a few times a year and - of course - come away with a crock of the King of Clubs club cheese. Turns out, there's a place that lives in the shadow of the Mars Cheese Castle that has decided to take a different tact towards succeeding: Mars has gone big. Bobby Nelson? He's stayed small. If you've listened to Steve Dahl for any period of time, you might have heard him talk about Bobby Nelson's. I convinced Nat (and her folks...Dahl fans!) to make the 25 minute drive over to the cheese shop to check it out. Above you see the sign: Wisconsin Cheese! Bobby Nelson is a former wrestler (wrassler) who had the move the "full nelson" named after him ?!? Kinda awesome. Below is the shop. If you look closely at the right side of the pic, you can make out one of the turrets of the Mars Cheese Castle. They're like 300 yards apart. Inside, this place is awesome
