More Places that are Must Stops




I have received lots of positive feedback about my last post so have decided to go with the new format for a bit.  So again here are a few places you should take the time to visit.  

Montfort - Rural Route One Popcorn: Popcorn is popcorn – right?    Well if you visit Rural Route One Popcorn you will find out differently.  They have transformed ordinary popcorn into to delicious addictiveness.   Sure you can buy regular popcorn but why when you have so many yummy selections to choose from like C.C. Wincle (caramel corn with roasted cashews), RC Snakle (white fudge meets sweet raspberry and tart cranberry bit), or Cherry Cheesecake.  You can also buy bags of mixed flavors which is my go to.   Would rather pop your own corn – they have all the corn you need and every popping accessory to be had.   If all this was not enough -  you will find amazing jewelry, kids toys and books, novelty items, kitchen tools (my personal weakness) and many delightful  gift and decorative items.  


 
Princeton - Once In a Blue Moon:  Found this restaurant by a unique alignment of stars on what started out as a very bad road trip. A local merchant in a town on our route recommended this place as an alternative to our plans.  What a recommendation. The restaurant is located at 538 W Water Street in Princeton – right in the middle of an interesting downtown area. Follow a lifelong dream of owning their own restaurant - twenty years ago the owners left Laguna Beach and headed to Princeton, WI.  Once in a Blue Moon has been going strong for 19 of those 20 years. The front entrance area is a mini boutique with some very fun items, but what makes this place is the food and the service.   We sampled a wide selection of offerings and all were amazing.  Taking the time to check this place out is definitely  worth the time.

 

 
Green Lake - Guth’s End of Trail Candy and Ice Cream Store:  This store is not big but it has a wonderful selection of delightful homemade chocolates.   The prices are very, very reasonable.  Guth’s is a great place to take a break from exploring Green Lake to enjoy some ice cream or frozen yogurt.  The staff is very friendly and so helpful.   In fact it was here I learned about Once in a Blue Moon.  Along with treats you will find some novel gift items.  All and all a great place to visit more than once.
