This is a picture of the intersection of Fourth Avenue and Broadway in Baraboo. The two-story brick building on the corner is a cafe. Right next to it is the Wellington Building. This is where I work in the law office of Screnock & Screnock, Ltd. The Screnocks own the building and rent out office space and five apartments upstairs. The large picture window into our office is blocked by the tree. The office is across the street from the Sauk County Courthouse. You see a corner of the courthouse square in the right foreground.



Baraboo is more famous as the home of the Ringlings of circus fame, and there is a Circus World Museum: Circus World is America's Circus Museum, and Wisconsin's National Treasure! The museum is located at the site of the original Ringling Bros. Circus Winter Quarters - a National Historic landmark located in Baraboo, Wisconsin. The Irvin Feld Exhibit Hall and Visitor Center is the gateway to Circus World, housing extensive exhibits that include The Story of the Ringling Brothers, A Century of Spectacle, Trumpets of Paper, and a big-screen video about the Ringling Brothers. See the Wisconsin Historical Society's Web site for more information. [Click here.]



And for anyone who ever was a fan of Mystery Science Theater 3000, Baraboo is the hometown of Michael J. Nelson. Since he was the head writer before taking over as host, there were regular jokes about Wisconsin Dells thrown into the comments he and the bots made.
