Can you imagine stumbling upon the world's largest mailbox or a museum dedicated to legendary stuntman Evel Knievel? This episode of Treasures of Our Town promises a delightful journey through the quirkiest attractions of the Midwest with our special guest, Midwest travel aficionado Jack Norton. Jack and his wife Kitty have swapped their guitars for travel guides, and they're ready to share their fascinating shift from musicians to travel bloggers. We'll also give you a peek behind the scenes of their popular "Travel with Jack and Kitty" blog and podcast, along with upcoming plans for a daily video series brimming with visual treats.
Our chat with Jack takes us on a whirlwind adventure through hidden gems tucked away in the heartland. Hear about the sleepy town of Casey, Illinois, where you’ll find objects that break world records, and the Hobo Museum in Britt, Iowa, where the spirit of America's wandering workers is kept alive. We also reminisce about the massive Ball of Twine in Minnesota and its quirky significance, not to mention the fascinating Pavik Museum of Broadcasting. Jack even sprinkles in personal anecdotes and dad jokes, making this episode a delightful mix of humor and travel inspiration.
We share our own travel tales, including a camper van saga that turned into a comedic yet frustrating repair ordeal. Despite these bumps in the road, our passion for uncovering the Midwest’s oddities remains strong. From Nebraska’s Carhenge to the Hodag myth in Wisconsin, and from Wall Drug’s kitschy charm to the Wisconsin World's Largest Six-Pack, this episode is stuffed with stories that will make you laugh, dream, and possibly plan your own quirky road trip. Tune in for a treasure trove of tips and tales that celebrate the unique spirit of Midwest travel.
