The Americans do the grand buildings well, Wisconsin State Capital Building.
Yes spring has sprung.
Madison is a University city, with around 40,000 students enrolled at the Uni and a city population of just over 200,000.
The University of Wisconsin is home to one of the main Agriculture Universities in the US. I spent my day today at the Uni. meeting with academic/research staff in order to gain a greater understanding of the "dairying state" and where it is headed.

The car number plates say "America's Dairyland" & 80% of the milk is made into cheese.
There had to be a good cheese shop somewhere!
Some tastings, a good chat, a bag of cheese and some sourdough baguettes...I'm happy.
This shop featured in Will Studds "Cheese Slices" series.
Yummm that cheese looks good! Enjoy, Gill
ReplyDeleteGreat to see you back blogging. Madison is a lovely spot isn't it? Trust the visits went well - did you catch up with Mark Powell? The cheese is looking pretty good too - I would have been happy as well! A good warm up for France!
ReplyDeleteThat cheese shop looks like heaven! Fiona
ReplyDeleteGreat to see the blog posts make a return - and great pics yet again! Who knew a good cheese shop could exist in the States - after Washington I thought US cheese only came in that squeezable, bright-orange variety!
