Take a beautiful natural setting - the dells of the Wisconsin River - and load
it up with every tacky tourist trap known to man (minature golf, Paul Bunyan
restaurant, go-cart tracks, gift shops, cheap motels, "Tommy Bartlett's Robot
World" - come on!) - and you've got Wisconsin Dells. Ewww. As a Milwaukee
native who's lived in Minnesota for many years, I *pass by* the Dells several
times each year on trips home. About the only reason I stop in the Dells is to
eat or get gas at the establishments along I-90/94.

If you want to see more tasteful tourist attractions in southern Wisconsin,
visit the Baraboo or Spring Green areas instead.
