For some reason, I happen to be rather fond myself of Wisconsin Dells--the one and only Waterpark Capital of the World.

Which some are fond of dismissing as nothing more than a tacky "tourist trap" more than anything ... but, when all is said and done, there's plenty of interesting fun to be found, and in variety.

And throughout the year, come to think of it, thanks to the indoor waterpark resorts.

In any case, Wisconsin Dells would like to have you "be their guest," regardless of the time of year.

There can be only one Waterpark Capital.... 

(With apologies to "Milwaukee Talk")

(The following, reader, is done up in the stylee of the "Milwaukee Talk" segment as was a staple of the old "Heinie and His Grenadiers" show on WTMJ radio back in the 1930's and '40's, with an enforced lapse during World War II:)

No doubt therefore: Wisconsin Dells IS that once and future Waterpark capital of the world.

Only so that happens actually can be wetted and, thanks to to the hall variety of waterpark and waterpark refuge, Wisconsin Dells each time by the year.

Differently is said it not only for summer more.

Yes Wisconsin Dells still has the scenic beauty when first the place made has, that is popular over 125 years ago (and then some), but nowadays, it Dells visitor is longs himself waterslides and wavepools the Wisconsin after.

It is waterslides, although not only: Wisconsin has Dells redundance of other interesting material when likewise valued your time is and interest. Even, when you thought otherwise, that the city in its winter recovery was.

    some travelling music, as it were....

    And now, direct from the legendary Swiss ski resort and spa of St. Moritz--a legendary series of CD's which I'd be proud to consider "travelling music."

    Even if you're heading to Wisconsin Dells, I hope these CD's will certainly "set the mood" for a summer's relaxation "up where the pines begin," to use an old advertising slogan for the Lake Delton development.

    (You can preview these CD's by going to the St. Moritz Vibes Channel on www.stmoritz.ch and hearing them for yourself.)

    The Wisconsin Dells is a place like no other. I loved visiting when I was a kid, and now love taking my kids there too. The Dells is always changing, but in many ways it is the same as it was 25 years ago. For those who haven't been there, you need to check it out. Be sure to visit my blog www.dellsadvice.com to read more about what is happening in the Dells.
