Greetings from kleines c. I trust that all is well with all of you this August, and that everyone reading 'The Third' has had a most enjoyable summer, or winter, if you happen to be in the Southern Hemisphere. In terms of transportation, I should perhaps report that we have hired a 2013 Cadillac CTS-V WAGON for our drive around the Great Lakes this Fall!
Cadillac - 2013 CTS-V WAGON
We were offered a particularly good deal on the luxury Cadillac, and when in Rome, do as the Romans! Anyway, here is the legendary 'c' plan for transportation in the Midwest:
a to b via p
a = Chicago
b = Wisconsin
p = Madison
Speckled Hen Inn
We are planning to enjoy an Epicurean Getaway: the Wisconsin Cheese Tour. To know Wisconsin is to know its cheese. The state’s love affair with cheese isn’t just reserved for something we are often fond of wearing on our heads. Even the cows seem to know that while bovines in other state may claim they’re happier, only Wisconsin’s cows (and goats and sheep for that matter) can be confident in the knowledge that the milk they produce go on to make the best artisanal cheese in the nation, reaping more awards than any other state.
As one might expect for a state known for its originality, there is no shortage of creativity among Wisconsin’s cheese makers. Some 60 artisan cheesemakers are currently producing more than 600 different types of cheese, including hundreds of complex, one-of-a-kind artisanal, farmstead and organic varieties made by hand in small batches. But what does all that mean for the traveller? Just as the oenophile heads to Napa Valley for their grand wine tour, the compass for the artisan cheese enthusiast – in fact, any traveller interested in authentic Wisconsin fun and food – points directly to Wisconsin where its long list of master cheesemakers are passionate about their goods and share them proudly.

Couple that with farmers’ markets, restaurants featuring regional ingredients, farm-fresh breakfasts at the local B&B and tours of the breweries and wineries producing cheese’s most complimentary beverages – and you have an epicurean’s dream getaway. To make our culinary trip even easier, we’ve chosen the Southwestern Itinerary. Afterwards, we plan to drive into Canada! I propose some toast: to the Great Lakes, North America and 'The Third'! Three cheers from kleines c and the gang (whatever you are drinking)!
What's your favourite great lake?
PS And what of the Caspian Sea?
