WILD TRAVELS goes off the beaten path to celebrate America's unusual festivals, unknown museums and unconventional characters. It's intelligent, funny, and a bit irreverent, spotlighting our country's quirkiest people and places.
Visit the fun and lively 100th Anniversary of Green County's Cheese Days festival and tour a Boeing 727 airplane home. Also, experience the World's Largest Rattlesnake Roundup, meet a classic barber pole maker, and relish mustard heaven.
Las Vegas history shines at The Neon Museum, and the night prior to the Art Car Parade partake in the Art Car Party. Farmacia Botanica has a cure for what ails you (or what you wish to ail someone else) and remember astronaut Deke Slayton.
Flight fascinates at the Evergreen Aviation Museum, while The Peculiarium will add levity to your day. Open a door to the past at Marv's Farm Toys and Antiques, crack a brew at The Beer Can House, and reminisce at the Classical Gas Museum.
Take part in a Stand Still Parade and learn about Las Vegas's first casino. Also, visit the Skeletons in the Closet gift shop, have a merry good time at Baumgartner's Cheese Store and Tavern, and test your skills at the Pinball Museum.
Get in touch with the other side at the National Museum of Funeral History and explore some unique history in Illinois. Witness a snapshot in time in Minnesota, meet the creator of Art Park, and experience a voodoo (doughnut) wedding.
